When two hole cards just isn't enough, poker players around the world turn to Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) whether they are playing cash games or tournaments. Regardless of your preference to traditional or split-pot games, the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) schedule has you covered when it comes to finding fun PLO bracelet events to play.
Las Vegas, Nevada (March 5, 2025) - Since 1984, Pot-Limit Omaha has been a mainstay on the yearly World Series of Poker schedule. In the modern era of poker, PLO remains the second most popular format after no-limit Texas hold’em.
Every year at the WSOP, PLO fans from around the world travel to Las Vegas, highly anticipating the largest fields one can find for Pot-Limit Omaha tournaments.
Out of the 16 PLO events featured on the 2025 WSOP schedule, the WSOP team is excited to share our list of 5 Pot-Limit Omaha tournaments we recommend YOU play this summer in Sin City.

Beginning on Tuesday, June 3rd, the $600 Pot-Limit Omaha Deepstack is a great tournament for first-time WSOP players and grinders looking to play their first PLO bracelet event.

Fans of the biggest live-streamed cash games will recognize this format that has become quite popular amongst the poker community.
The first Bomb Pot WSOP tournament that is exclusively PLO, the $1,500 buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha Double Board Bomb Pot event is sure to produce tons of action whether there are two boards or one.
Even for gamblers who prefer to remain in the cash game streets, if you have accrued experience playing Double Board PLO in your local poker rooms, you may very well have an edge in this tournament.

Want to play some Pot-Limit Omaha and lots of hands? If so, the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed tournament is perfect for you.
With fewer players at the table, entrants in Event 91 can get in the mix even more as they battle their way to riches and a shiny WSOP bracelet.
At last summer’s World Series of Poker, Joseph “Toe” Sanders won his first career bracelet, and used the $269,530 first-place prize to pad his impressive career WSOP winnings total, which currently stands at over $500,000.

Mystery bounty tournaments are all the rage right now, so it makes sense the WSOP would offer the popular format to PLO players.
Making its debut at the 2024 World Series of Poker, the $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha event drew an impressive turnout, with 4,280 players filling the ballrooms of the Horseshoe and Paris hoping for a $100,000 bounty and eventually a bracelet.
In 2024, Germany’s Sascha Wilhelm won his first career bracelet as well as $282,290 when he defeated James Cavanaugh heads-up at the final table.
Want your shot at finishing with a bracelet like Wilhelm, or pulling one of the two $100,000 bounties? If so, we highly recommend firing Event 86.
#5 - Event 21: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Buy-in: $1,500
Dates: Wednesday, June 4th - Friday, June 6th 2025

While we could certainly give the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship the final spot on this list, we would be doing Hi-Lo PLO players a disservice by not recommending you play Event 21.
The lone split-pot event mentioned in this article, the $1,500 buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better tournament is perfect for seasoned poker players experienced at the format.
During the most recent WSOP, Caleb Furth won his first WSOP bracelet in the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better event, along with the lucrative first-place prize of $265,361.
