Robert "Chip Burner" Turner has made the money here at Event #34, and he came up to us with an interesting quote.
"I invented Omaha, you know," he said.
According to Turner, he introduced the game of Omaha to the poker community in the 1980s, when it began to spread at the Golden Nugget as "Nugget Hold'em."
What we can say without a shadow of doubt is that Turner is an accomplished poker player, having recorded cashes of more than $2.3 million dating back to 1982 in a variety of games. He also has a World Series of Poker bracelet in this very event from 1993.
