Omaha Returns to Niagara Falls with the Seneca Fall Classic $300 Pot Limit Omaha Starting Now!

Seneca Niagara

Today in Niagara Falls, it's four cards instead of two. Two cards must play at showdown and the limit is always the pot.

It's the start of the 2016 Seneca Fall Classic $15,000 guaranteed $300 Pot Limit Omaha event inside the Niagara Falls Poker Room and it should be a good one.

It's a single-day event and the levels are 30-minutes each. Players get 20,000 chips to start and can enter and reenter freely, all the way up to the start of Level 9. PLO tournaments have no antes.

Like a lot of poker rooms around the United States these days, here at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino, the PLO cash games seem to play higher than Hold'em. That means the area's top poker talent is well versed in four-card poker and are expected to turn up to contest this particular Seneca Fall Classic crown.

The last time the room ran this event was at the 2016 Seneca Niagara Falls Summer Slam series and Geoff Saxton, a 33-year-old Grocery Manager at Tops Friendly Markets playing in his first ever live Pot Limit Omaha tournament, got the best of a 77-entry field to earn a $5,356 first-place prize.

Ray LaRouech and eventual runner-up Evan Shaughnessy were involved in a three-way chop with Saxton for the lion's share of the prize pool.

That event crushed it's $15,000 Guarantee, creating a $19,385 prize pool, and the same kind of turnout is expected today.

PokerNews will be here for every bit of the action, from the call the shuffle up and deal to the moment a champion is crowned. Sit back and enjoy, all the Pot Limit Omaha action you'll ever be able to handle is coming at you live, beginning at 11 a.m. local time.
