Another championship event gets underway today at 3 p.m. in Brasilia. Event #51: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship (8-Handed) is an exciting new event on the schedule this year, as this event came only in the form of a $1,500 and a $3,000 buy-in in last year's WSOP.
Kyle Bowker defeated Kate Hoang heads up last year to win the $3,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship for his first bracelet and $294,960. That event attracted 473 runners for a total prize pool of $1,291,290. This year's championship event will be a bit more expensive and is sure to draw some tough competition.

There will be 15-minute breaks every two hours of play and late registration is available through the break after Level 8, or around midnight. The event is scheduled to last three days.
