Event #57: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller
Giorno 1 iniziato
At noon local time, the high-stakes action at the 2023 World Series of Poker continues with another exciting bracelet event. Four card lovers from near and far will return to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas for Event #57: $25,000 High Roller Pot-Limit Omaha.
This four-day event drew a total of 264 entries in 2022 and awarded $6,237,000 in prize money along with the coveted WSOP gold bracelet. China's Tong Li defeated German high-stakes PLO cash game player Fabian Brandes in heads-up play to earn the top prize of $1,467,739 and his first bracelet. Somewhat remarkably, it was the first WSOP cash on Li’s poker résumé and it turned out to be a seven-figure score.
Now five-time WSOP champion and 2021 WSOP Player of the Year Josh Arieh was denied another victory one year ago when he finished in third place, while the final table also featured the likes of Sam Stein, Scott Ball and Jonathan Depa.

The tournament features a starting stack of 150,000 in chips, which is good enough for 300 big blinds in the first level with blinds of 300-500. Throughout the event, the big blind ante format will be used and the tournament also employs a 30-second shot clock.
All levels last 60 minutes each and ten of them are scheduled for Day 1 with a 15-minute break every two levels and a scheduled 60-minute dinner break upon completion of level six. Late registration remains open until the start of Level 13 on Day 2 at approximately 2:15 p.m. local time on Monday, June 26th.
During the registration period, a total of two reentries are allowed for each of the participants in case they run out of chips and wish to jump back into the action. The tournament is slated to play down to a winner across four days with Day 3 set to conclude when the final five players have been reached, which may allow for the event to be streamed on the PokerGO platform.
The event follows in the wake of Event #50: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship, which concluded on the main feature table of the Horseshoe Event Center yesterday. A record-setting field of 731 entries concluded with the victory of Ap Louis "Lou" Garza over fellow Texan PLO player Arthur Morris and both are expected to take another shot at a WSOP gold bracelet.
Stay tuned for all of the PLO action right here on PokerNews in the days to come.

In a battle of the blinds, Scott Bohlman bet the A♦A♥J♥J♦ turn for 500 and Anthony Zinno called. They checked the K♠ river and Bohlman announced a pair of sixes, to which Zinno replied "set of tens" as he exposed his 10♣10♥10♠6♠.
Bohlman flashed his 10♦6♦6♥2♥ and giggled as both shared most of the same cards. Zinno took the pot with two pair, aces and tens.

On a heads-up completed board of 4♦10♠3♣7♠4♣, Robert Emmerson bet the full pot of 49,800 and the action was then on Farhad Jamasi, who thought for a second before he flicked out a chip to make the call.
Emmerson then tabled 10♣8♠7♥7♦ for sevens full of fours and Jamasi held a brief hand funeral before sending it into the muck.
