At 2 p.m. local time, the second of eleven bracelet events of the2017 World Series of Poker Europe kicks off at King's Casino in Rozvadov with Day 1a of the €550 Pot-Limit Omaha Event #2. Back in 2015, it was English poker legend and Hendon Mob co-founder Barny Boatman that defeated a 503-entry strong field to claim a payday of €54,725 and his second WSOP bracelet.
Boatman just arrived the previous day in Europe's biggest poker arena and has more than $3.3 million in cashes, of which $1,385,852 come from WSOP Events so far. In heads-up, he defeated Grzegorz Grochulski while Jose Obadia finished 4th, and both Grochulski and Obadia already took part in the €1,100 MONSTER STACK that restarts at 2 p.m. local time as well with the final 13 out of a 561-entry strong field.
The €550 Pot-Limit Omaha Event #2 will feature two starting days and 18 levels of 30 minutes each and the tournament will reach the money on each respective starting day similar to the Colossus. All participants receive 10,000 in chips and the registration and unlimited re-entries are available during the first eight levels, followed by a 60-minute dinner break.
The PokerNews live reporting team will be on the floor to provide all the action until the event concludes on Thursday October 26th 2017.
