Omaha High Rollers Get Their Time to Shine When Event #6: €5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Begins at 4 p.m.
Two Pot-Limit Omaha bracelets have already been awarded at the 2024 World Series of Poker Europe, but the big one is being saved for last as Event #6: €5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha begins at 4 p.m. local time.
This event is sure to attract an elite field of Omaha specialists and high rollers. In last year’s tournament, Omaha newcomer Wing Po Liu defied the odds to take home the bracelet, prevailing over a field of 202 entries and defeating Main Event champion Omar Eljach heads-up to win €230,000. That final table also included three-time bracelet winner Anson Tsang and 2022 WSOP $25,000 Omaha High Roller champion Tong Li.
