Brand New Event
Nivel 1
: 50/75, 0 ante
If you're not accustomed to the $5,000 PLO/Six Handed event at the World Series of Poker, that's because this is the first year it has graced the schedule. Last year there was a $5,000 buy-in PLO event, but it was played nine handed, not six.
That event, which drew 460 players and created a prize pool of $2,162,000, saw Chance Kornuth emerge victorious to take home the $508,090 first-place prize. PLO is a popular game, so we'll have to wait and see if today's field can come close to last year's counterpart.
