Some New Faces Emerge

Similar to Adam Owen, Ismael Bojang had been in the $3,000 Shootout earlier today and won his table to advance to Day 2 as of 12 pm local time. If Bojang and Owen were to advance this event as well, they'd have two hours to make a move or blind out in one of the events as Day 2 of the Omaha 8 or Better restarts at 2 pm local time.

David Sklansky and Mike Matusow also jumped in and the field size has grown to more than 870 entries already, registration remains open until the start of level nine.
