Yes very nice to see so many top poker players playing one against another in this omaha game, I am sure it is good to see how they play the hands and maybe learn some tactics that you can then use to your game and be a better player also win more money.

We will see if those games are going to overheat, like those on the old FT. Where nearly every day brought a new biggest pot in online poker, the stakes went up more and more, and every day, where someone didn`t win/lose at least a million, was a no news day .

For these professional players is normal $100/$200 or $200/$400. We do not have to be amazed but just learn something and here i refer to the players who love this omaha game and those who want to learn the game better. Let's see if they will resist these games organized by Sam Trickett.

I do not really like Omaha ... of course I understand the principles of the game but I can not quickly navigate in different situations ... of course I understand that if I constantly practice in this game, then the skills I will have .... but it's about that I like Hold'em much more and ... that's it.

With the game being PLO, these limits and all the professionals participating, must have some good action, worth watching live. Since it is on party poker it wont be hard watching the tables live. He has a very nice total from winnings, so far.

i'm not so sure that everyone has had a great night like trickett is saying, he only pointed out dudes who won some cash on the night, but i really find it hard to comprehend how the fcuk you can say you had a great night when you lost say 50k in a few hours.

Trickett's Room was nominated for the Northern Design Awards in February 2017. I love the decor of the Trickett's Room. It's not too flashy, but classy. I will definitely pay a visit to the Dusk Till Dawn Poker and Casino when I am in Nottingham.

I love Omaha..... I just don't to play it too often. I really should play more, then maybe one day I too could get an invitation to play in tricketts room. I guess I will then need to find 50k, but I'm sure that someone somewhere will stake me and let me lose their hard earned cash. Give Omaha a go. It's the thinking man's game!

I smell bull$s**t from the get-go, especially with the casual namedropping... Would not surprise me if party would have bankrolled all participators in the room.

Omaha it's not such a hard game. I do not understand some things but if you learn a little about this game you develop your abilities. I do not play this game with real money but I'll show you a picture with me in the freeroll game. I did not have a hard game but at the end I managed to have a place to remember.

You cant say it is an easy game. And many times depends on the limits you are playing. You can find many players, going all in, more often than they do with holdem, which at some point can limit your game, seeing less flops than expected.
