By Pot Limit Omaha Strategies, on April 14th, 2011 The first ever Poker After Dark Omaha cash game has possibly the greatest line up of world class players ever assembled. Must watch TV for all PLO fans. Fans have been asking to see some Pot Limit Omaha on either 'Poker After Dark' or 'High Stakes Poker' for the past couple of years, with 'Poker After Dark' finally obliging. Many top cash game players prefer PLO over NLHE, so it should be no surprise that the line-up for the two-week 'Pot-Limit Omaha Cash Game' is absolutely stacked.
What's up guys, welcome to another hand review video based on Poker After Dark's $300/$600 Pot Limit Omaha week with $100k buy-ins. On day 2 they played arou. Beginning this Monday night, NBC's Poker After Dark will be featuring a two-week run of pot-limit Omaha cash games. Fans have been clamoring for the alternate poker variant for quite some time.
This week, the series debut of Pot Limit Omaha on Poker After Dark hit PokerGO's THEVAULT and next week, PLO returns to PokerGO with two nights of high stakes Poker After Dark cash games. 'Racks of Lamb' week won't be the first four-card session to stream since PAD's summer reboot. 'PLOMG' week captivated fans with not only Pot Limit Omaha action, but appearances by Tom Dwan, Phil Galfond, and Brandon Adams.
'Racks of Lamb' week will feature big names and potentially bigger PLO action. Ben Lamb, Brian Rast, Matt Kirk, Andy Andrejevic, Richard Kirsch, Keith Lehr, and Chris MacFarland make up the $100/$200/$400 lineups, which will feature a mandatory $400 straddle on each hand.
For Poker After Dark fans, Lamb and Rast need no introduction. They've each been featured a handful of times since last summer's reboot including some of the biggest cash games in televised poker history during 'Rumble with Jungle' and 'PLOMG' weeks. Kirk introduced himself to the PokerGO audience during 'The Return of Tom Dwan' cash games, when 'Aussie Matt' filled a seat and bumped the already mind-numbing game even higher during that week's final cash session.
Both Andrejevic and Kirsch made their PokerGO debuts during the U.S. Poker Open. They final tabled the $10,000 Pot Limit Omaha event which was won by Mike Gorodinsky. Just like 'Gordo,' Keith Lehr is a two-time WSOP bracelet winner. Lehr will make his Poker After Dark debut next week, when he makes his lone appearance during Day 1 of 'Racks of Lamb' week. Chris MacFarland rounds out the lineup.

Running all this week on NBC's 'Poker After Dark' is a $100,000 Pot Limit Omaha Cash Game. The weeklong series marks the first time that 'Poker After Dark' has ever deviated from Hold'em and featured a solid lineup of six of the game's top Omaha minds.
The cash game, which emanated from Aria in CityCenter Las Vegas, began with an overview of the basic rules of Pot Limit Omaha. Each player began stacked with $100,000 and blinds held steady at $300/$600. For the first time ever, 'Poker After Dark' used a four-color on-screen deck so viewers could differentiate between suits and Full Tilt Poker pro Andy Bloch joined Ali Nejad in the booth to analyze each hand.

Pot Limit Omaha Poker After Dark Spot
The largest pot of Monday's kickoff episode was worth $240,000 and saw Patrik Antonius raise to $9,300 before the flop with Kh-Kc-8c-7h. Tom 'durrrr' Dwan, his opponent in the Full Tilt Durrrr Challenge, called with Jd-10d-8h-6c and the flop came 9s-5d-Jc. Dwan, holding top pair and an open-ended straight draw, bet $16,200 and Antonius, holding kings and a gutshot, popped it to $71,100. Dwan moved all-in for $109,000 and Antonius called to set up the $240,000 monster.
Dwan and Antonius agreed to run it twice and 'durrrr' found a third jack on the first go-around to scoop $120,000. Antonius struck back by scooping the second half of the pot when the Ac and 3d fell, resulting in a chop. Needless to say, viewers were in for 10 nights of major confrontations and large pots.

In another six-figure pot, Antonius bet $21,000 with Kd-Kc-9s-9h on a flop of 3s-7c-Ah for a pair of kings and Phil Ivey moved all-in for $68,000 with Ac-Js-8c-4c for top pair. Antonius called and, upon showing his hand, Ivey told him, 'You're crazy.' The turn and river were only run once, with the 10d and Qc sending the $186,000 pot to Ivey for a timely double up.
In another major hand, Antonius bet $14,000 on a flop of 10h-9s-9d with As-Ks-Kc-2s and Brandon Adams came along with Qh-Qd-2h-2c. Both players checked when the Jh hit on the turn and the river was the Kh, giving Adams a king-high flush and Antonius a full house, kings full of nines. Adams check-folded to a bet of $57,000 from Antonius, who raked in a pot of $124,000.
Did we mention that the talented six-handed table also included Phil 'OMGClayAiken' Galfond? The Bluefire Poker front man flopped the nut straight with Ks-Jc-10h-7c when the first three cards came 9h-8d-7d. Ivey, who held Ad-Qc-10s-6c for a 10-high straight, called Galfond's $4,000 flop bet and the turn was the Kc. Ivey check-called a bet of $9,000 from his opponent and the 4c peeled off on the river. Ivey once again check-called a bet, this time of $24,000, and Galfond's straight held on for the win in the $80,000 pot.
