Welcome back to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino and the 2014 World Series of Poker for Event #42: $5,000 Six-Handed Pot-Limit Omaha!
Today marks the third time a straight Pot-Limit Omaha event has graced this year's WSOP schedule, but the first time it is being played short-handed as the buy-in has also been increased.
In 2013 Steve Gross captured his first bracelet after defeating Salman Behbehani heads-up to top a 400-player field to walk home with a $488,817 first prize. Players reaching the money-paying top 40 a year ago included Yevgeniy Timoshenko (7th), Trevor Pope (13th), Sorel Mizzi (16th), Roland Israelashvili (21st), Davidi Kitai (24th), Shaun Deeb (26th), Freddy Deeb (27th), Daniel Negreanu (34th), Tony Cousineau (37th), and Chad Brown (39th).
This year's two low buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha tournaments were won by Brandon Shack-Harris and Brandon Pastor and attracted nearly 2,100 players between the two events. Today will more likely see a field of between 300 and 400 take to the felt as PLO players look to seize an opportunity to capture a WSOP bracelet.

The cards are now in the air for Event #42!
The plan today is to play ten 60-minute levels with a 90-minute dinner break coming after level six.

: 25/50, 0 ante
Although last year saw 400 entries in this event, so far the tournament is spread amongst two sections of the Brasilia Room; the Blue and Silver section.
With only those two sections currently having players and empty tables with chip stacks ready to go - it means that the tournament is set to cater for just under 250 players.
However with registration open till the start of level seven; approximately 8:10 p.m., the tournament is most definitely expected to swell into contention with rivaling last year's entrant number.

British father and son duo Paul and Ben Jackson have bought into the $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event and are flying the British flag. Having seen England's World Cup hopes dashed earlier today, the Jackson's will be looking for a deep run in this excting tournament.
Paul Jackson is sat in the Blue section while son Ben is a few tables over in Silver.
