I'm almost positive this is the first time PLO/8 has ever been spread in the WSOP. I'm just guessing, but most of the live tournament circuit regulars would have very little experience playing this game. Even most of the internet MTT whizzes probably haven't played much. I'd speculate the field will have a mix of complete dead money donks, live tournament specialists playing double-up-or-get-out poker, guys more familiar with limit 0/8 playing very cautiously, guys more familiar with limit 0/8 chasing too many lows and learning that getting quartered is disastrous in PL, and some online PL0/8 specialists who decide to take a flyer on this event but have limited live experience.
