The Virtual Felt Awaits a New WSOP.com PLO Gold Bracelet Champion

[user270022]

The first-ever WSOP.com Online pot-limit Omaha gold bracelet will be awarded on Friday as Event #47: $565 WSOP.com ONLINE Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed will see the action switch to the virtual felt. Play will kick off at 3:30 p.m. local time in Las Vegas and as of now (about two-and-a-half hours before it begins) the field already has 73 players eager to get underway.

Late registration for the event will be open for the first three hours and forty-five minutes closing at approximately 7:15 p.m. Players will start with 15,000 in chips and blinds will increase every 20 minutes. This event features unlimited re-entry. Players will have 30 seconds after they bust to re-enter and cannot use WSOP.com tournament tickets to re-enter. As is custom with most online events, there will be a five-minute break at 55 minutes past the hour.

Be aware: you can’t play this event on your iPad or phone, the mobile client doesn’t support Omaha. So it’s got to be in the desktop client.

There are still many opportunities to satellite in with Last Chance qualifiers running now. Stay tuned to the blog as PokerNews will be providing live coverage until the last card comes off the deck and the latest WSOP champion is crowned.
