John Beauprez Offers Big O Advice With WSOP Tournament Looming

A brand-new event on the 2016 World Series of Poker schedule is Event #53: Mixed Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Low/Omaha Hi-Low/Big O, set to begin this afternoon at 3 p.m.

That last part of the event's name is a bit of a surprise, actually. Despite being a popular cash game variant at the Rio All-Suites Hotel and Casino the last few summers, "Big O" has never been featured in any bracelet event until now.

Big O is a version of pot-limit Omaha Hi-Low in which players are dealt five cards instead of four.
