888poker has launched two new daily tournaments, called PKOmaha. They combine the action of PLO with the bounties of Progressive Knockout (PKO) tournaments!
Progressive Knockout (PKO) tournaments are very popular in online poker. Pot-limit Omaha (PLO) has become a favorite action-packed game among players as well.
888poker brilliantly combined the two hits by offering two daily PKOmaha events.[...] Read more » PLO and PKO Unite as PKOmaha at 888poker

We can definitely play a few of these tournaments per month, even if we don't know the Omaha version very well. Here i mean at those who do not know this game. It's fun and it can be good for your style and pleasure. Good luck with that.

I like 888poker tournaments, and more with this combination between the action of PLO and progressive Knockout tournaments, now called PKOmaha, it will be fun to play them, plus there are tickets with just 22 dollars, where most can play it.

Many players who are bored of Texas hold'em can try here for a while to adapt and after that to press the accelerator for more money. It's not a bad game and i don't know how successful it will be, but they can launch a satellites strategy where 3 times every 24 hours and on weekends to have stronger tournaments of PKOmaha.

godoy, try some fun games to adapt. I think you can waste a few bucks on small tournaments. In this way you will realize if it is good to continue playing this kind of poker. I don't know why you're upset about pkomaha, but relax and play what u want.

This omaha tournament is very fun, it is a new game and I love the challenges that 888poker is having with the community of placing a tournament of that nature, that makes the poker community grow, also omaha which is a game that is growing in the last years.

I don't think it will grow too much because poker is falling compared to previous years. The important thing is that they to know how to gather players and suitable satellites would increase interest here. Many players in tournaments it is something attractive.

Omaha I am liking little by little, hos I am playing almost all day, I think I am already liking it more than holdem, I think there is more action there because there are more cards that you play, but in general that community should be growing at lower limits.

I read a little about it and here we can do 3 rebuys per game. A good idea and the buy-ins are not great at these tournaments for our tastes. It's really good and it's important to have some players to play with them. From 10 million of customers, we can find few hundred in every tourney, i hope.
