Seven o'clock in the evening started the fight for the champion of the "four cards" in the form of the Pot Limit Omaha event of the Slovak Series Of Poker. A great buy-in of 110€ and the opportunity to win a gold bracelet attracted PLO specialists to Banco Casino Bratislava. The tables with omaha filled up very quickly and by the third level we had seven full tables. Well- known names longing for a gold bracelet from this dynamic discipline fought the four cards responsibly. After closing the registration, the number of entries closed at 100, which topped last year's participation!

The prize pool of 10,000 Euros was divided between the top ten and the winner was awarded with a prize of 2,640€ plus the SSOP symbol. After 12 hours of play, Philipp Wallner finally became the champion of Pot Limit Omaha!
