THE OMAHARTIGAN LEAGUE - WEEK 1

edited September 2010 in Poker Chat
Yes, your chance to win a seat in a Sky Poker Tour live event starts tonight!  (If you don't know what I'm talking about, read THIS)

The first two tournaments in a series of twelve take place this evening.  After some initial confusion, they're now clearly labelled as OmaHartigan League events.  They are:

19:10  £3.30  Pot Limit Omaha
21:25  £3.30  Pot Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

I've registered for both (intentionally!) and look forward to seeing you at the tables.  I'll also be frequenting the Omaha cash games as part of my usual PTP activities.

I'll keep you informed of my whereabouts via this thread.  You can also expect live OmaHartigan updates from tournament blogger extraordinaire, hawk7112.  And, once both tournaments have concluded, Sky Poker's master statistician will get to work on compiling the all-important league table.  Expect it to be published tomorrow morning.

    Inevitably it didn't take long before I was hit by a lurgy and I'm sent home ill!

    I'm gonna try both these tonight but really feel uncertain about them - especially the hi lo!

    Enjoy taking my chips.

    Busy night ahead!
    I've entered:
    7.10 Omahartigan
    7.15 Forum deepstack
    8.00 ME
    8.30 Totty
    9.25 Omahartigan

    Not sure about multi format but I'll give it a go.  My screen can only fit 4 tables but I'm confident I can go out of one at least one of the other tournaments before 9.25, if not all.

    Nice work, Paul!  Good luck in all your tournaments - and thanks for supporting The OHL :-)

    I've played one session of hi-lo in my life, but I'm sure that clicking buttons randomly will guide me to the win :)

    Wow, just realised that Tikay's signed up.  Is there a bounty on his head...?

    Isn't that the same as your NLHE strategy, Ryan...?

    You've now got less than an hour to sign up for the first OmaHartigan League tournament!  We currently have 36 runners.

    (Meanwhile, 28 players have signed up for the Hi-Lo event...)

    Hi James and everyone playing in tonight's Omahartigan games.

    Just to let you all know- I'm gonna sit this one out as I feel it would be unfair for a Sky Poker employee to win an SPT seat and, let's face it, with my staggering Omaha skills, I would.

    My extraordinarily generous gift to you all means you now have a fighting chance of winning.

    Rich

    PS-You're welcome.

    The OHL officially starts in less than 10 minutes!  And we have 50+ runners in the first event!!!

    Meanwhile, as promised, I'm playing Omaha cash as well.  Currently at Lewisham - 5p/10p PLO.

    73!!!  In all honesty, that exceeded my expectations.  Here's hoping we can get that number into double figures as the OHL moves forward...

    I have been getting a complex wondering why James and Rich were ignoring me - I am guessing download users can only see chat from other downloaders??!

    Hi all,

    I appear to be having chat-related issues this evening.  Can anyone see what I'm typing?

    Sorry, Rich - it's not available to the general public yet ;-)

    I've reported this chat "bug."  Once the 19:10 tournament has come to an end, I'll switch back to using the website.
