Loved that. Great fun and I came 18th in PLO and 11th in PLO8. That's without having a clue what was a good starting hand. I thought it was a post-flop game but kept getting raised pre. Books arrived from Amazon today though. I'll read them and I'll be back. Great idea this league JimmyH, although I'm fairly sure you actually stole the idea from Kendall? Posted by bandini
That is outrageous!!! As he's been brought up in conversation, I should say that I feel a shadow has been cast over this otherwise successful evening by Tikay's 8th place finish in the Hi-Lo event. Sigh.
No success in the tournaments, but I did score a profit at the cash tables - which makes up for my "accidental" Primo buy-in last night!
Congratulations to the winners of both OHL events - hi_mum and OnlyOneCT. And thanks to everyone who played in tonight's tournies. The turnout was fantastic. Let's hope we can get similar numbers next week.
Finally, my thanks to Dave (hawk7112) for his excellent live updates and to Sky Poker's Master Statistician for compiling the all-important league table. It's coming. Sooner than you think...

I'm sure Tikay was planning something similar a few weeks back.
Anyhow,
As they say, form is temporary, class is permanent. 5 weeks yet for youse to duke it out.
To add a bit more entairtainment to the Omahartigan league? A wee charity bet as to who gets the most points out of you and Tikay?
EXCELLENT evening's entertainment, well done to SickNote Hartigan, Squawky the Updater, Mycroft the Scorer, & all the players.
I expected to do a little better than I did, but at least I got some points, & finished north of Dyl, Sicknote*, Solly, Shax, & Co, & on exactly the same points as MereNovice.
* - It is a little misleading to suggest I finished above Sicknote, because he never actually scored any points at all, but he was gifted 4 points just for turning up, due to a peculiarity in the rules. Which he invented.
Wow Lancashire reign supreme after week 1 which we all know aint gonna be the case after weeks 2,3,4,5 and er..............6 but ill give it my best shot to stay top of the omaha tree haha lol!

OK, I'm up for this. But, as I'm currently 6/4 underdog, I want odds!
So, if Tikay finishes higher than me in the OHL table in six weeks' time, I'll donate £20 to Battersea Cats & Dogs Home. But, if the roles are reversed, he has to donate £30 to a charity of his choosing.
I think it was an excellent idea and an excellent evening. Just a quick question though, shouldn't the people that finished in the top 8 and gained omahartigan points(new dictionary word I think), also get the 2 points for turning up aswell, for example, the person that won each tourny should receive 20 points plus the standard 2 points?
