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. |

Im trying to play at least #42. Hopefully #36 as well if I can get some backers or something really good happens between now and then.

Re: WSOP 2k7 Omaha 8 Events; Whose Getting Ready?
Anybody with good field predictions? Event #44 had 670 players, with 1st prize $341,426
I wouldn't mind having a massive amount of players for the earlier events. Anything to fluff up the prize pool. |

Re: WSOP 2k7 Omaha 8 Events; Whose Getting Ready?
I'll be playing the PLO8 event. I've never played live pot-limit poker before. Can I just announce, "I bet the pot" or "I raise the pot" and then let the dealer figure out the amount of the bet? Or do I actually have to pay attention to the growing size of the pot and announce the correct size of my bet? I feel lost without a "bet pot" button or at least a little slider bar I can click.
