Registration is now closed and only 18 players are left in the running for 8 paid places in the €150 Pot Limit Omaha 5 at the Circus Namur French Open. 

The tournament drew 58 entries for a prizepool of just over €7,000, and many old acquaintances are still on track. Aliosha Staes, Fabien Perrot, Laurent van Severen and Anthony Faisca are all here, as are Gerard Bargibant, David Kahan and former Red Devil Eric Deflandre. 

The game is played on blinds 1000 - 2000 with an average of 33 blinds and levels of 20 minutes, the decision is still very far from being made!

Alio leaves empty-handed

Eliminated in 10th place in the €150 PLO 5, Aliosha Staes was the last player to leave without paying. 

The tournament was scheduled to pay 8 places, but the last 9 players in the running decided to take €150 off the top prize and €50 off the runner-up to smooth out the payout. 



Samuel Morssinkhof jumped in to bring about the ultimate reunification, and the final has just begun... 

Fabien Perrot, David Kahan and Fred Davidts are still in the running to win...

Andrea Caizzi King of the PLO5 after deal

After a 4-player final lasting almost 3 hours and 40 minutes, the survivors from a field of 58 entrants agreed to guarantee themselves €1,100, while leaving a small ticket for the top two finishers.  



Half an hour later, the final trio agreed at the ICM, each taking the equivalent of the original second prize. In the lead at the time of the agreement, Andrea scratches the remainder and the trophy of this Pot Limit Omaha at €150 per entry.
