Potential for an Omaha game in venue?????

Postby Hagar76 » Sat Apr 09, 2011 3:59 pm

Is there the potential for an Omaha game either in venue or as a side event for a quarter or semi final etc? I know its probably not the easiest thing to organise but i think it would be well worth it. Be interested on anyone elses thoughts on this.

there was one in adelaide quite a while ago but it only used to get about 10 runners.

having said that, i think a lot more people have had exposure to it these days, so it could work.

i reckon it would work best as a second game of a double header at a venue.

It's a closed group

We mean it's weird it's no limit rather than pot limit.

Oops, oh well Todd anounced it as pot limit but there was a bit of banter then it got changed to NL, I assume the idea is to intoduce the game with out too much hassle of working out bet sizes.

a lot of the players up that way play a lot of Manila.
