Day 1 of Event #52: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship Starts at 3 p.m.
While the $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha tournament is playing down to a winner, a new PLO event is about to kick off. It's time for Event #52: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship at the 2019 World Series of Poker and the ceremonial 'shuffle up and deal' will be announced at 3 p.m. local time here at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino.
This four-day event will search for the successor of Loren Klein, as it was he who beat a 476-entry field last year at the World Series to take home his third bracelet. Klein already won his fourth bracelet just two days ago when he beat the Mixed Big Bet field in fine style to make it four bracelets in four years, a phenomenal achievement by anyone's standards.
The plan for today is to play ten one-hour levels with a 15-minute break after every two levels. Late registration for the tournament will be open until the start of Day 2 of the tournament at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 23. The players will start with 60,000 in chips and the first two levels of the day will be 100/200 blinds. The last level of the day will be 800/1,600 and players can buy-in with a 30 big blind stack into Day 2 of the tournament.
The tournament attracted 400 entries in 2016 and that number grew to 428 in 2017. This event had a whopping 476 entries last year and there has been a lot of growth in pot-limit omaha events this summer. The field is expected to be bigger again, with plenty of familiar names battling it out for bragging rights in this ever-more-popular poker format.
