WSOP 2k7 Omaha 8 Events; Whose Getting Ready?
These events look good to me:
Event #9 Limit O8 June 5th, 2007. $1500 buyin, 3k chips, 60m blind levels.
Event #42 Pot Limit O8 June 25th, 2007 $1500 buyin, 3k chips, 60m blind levels.
Event #44 Limit O8 June 27th, 2007 $2000 buyin, 4k chips, 60m blind levels.
Yes, I personally excluded the World Champsionship O8 - Event #36. I'm being realistic, I would never play it unless I won 10x the buyin from poker. That's really wishful thinking.
Only event 44 has been there in the past. The other earlier dated events are new additions. Which I like!
It's not often you get decent sized field Omaha 8 tournaments going on at this buy-in range.
I think for a U.S. based player who plays online, the only way to simulate/replicate playing through such a field (possibly 600-800 guess) is to play in the lower buyin on PokerStars. I know Full Tilt has those double stack LO8 and PLO8 that starts with 3k tournament chips.
