Early Notables in the Field
Josh Arieh was seen taking his seat right on time. Arieh won player of the year in 2021 and has said that despite his lack of study in the game, he's felt he's had a knack at the Omaha variants for quite some time. In 2021 he won both the $1,500 PLO as well as the $10,000 PLO8 Championship.
Tyler Brown, recent winner of the $1,000 Mystery Bounty, was seen here sporting a new look. Before winning that event for a whopping $1,000,000, he was fresh off the final table of the $5,000 NLH/PLO Mix. Upon further inspection, it appeared that Brown's specialty may be in the Omaha variants. Brown logged three cashes in the PGT Omaha Series, including a runner up for $146,000.
Dylan Weisman was also seen in the field. Weisman is a dedicated PLO coach and won this very event in 2021 for $166,461. His most recent Omaha win was in the $25,000 PLO Championship at the PGT PLO series for a whopping, $416,500.
