Dia 1 Iniciado
Welcome back to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino and the 2019 World Series of Poker (WSOP) for Day 1 of the Event #45: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller.
This is the fifth Pot-Limit Omaha tournament of the WSOP so far, and the biggest of them all as it carries a lofty buy-in of $25,000. With three Pot-Limit Omaha champions already crowned, and one playing out today, so far Josh Pollock, Andrew Donabedian, and Luis Zedan have struck four-card gold.
In 2018, it would be Shaun Deeb collecting his third (of four total) WSOP bracelet when he defeated Ben Yu heads-up for the $1,402,683 first-place prize. Also on the final table was 1998 WSOP Main Event Champion Scotty Nguyen, the 2017 Champion of the event James Calderaro, high roller regular Jason Koon, WPT Champions Club member Ryan Tosoc, and WSOP bracelet winner David Benyamine.
