Marty Smyth wins $10,000 PLO bracelet

Running hot - Marty Smyth
Irishman Marty Smyth has won the $10,000 Pot Limit Omaha World Championship bracelet at the WSOP in Las Vegas.

Smyth scoops over $850,000 for his win to add to the $250,000 he won recently at the PartyPoker.com World Open IV and his Irish Open title last year. Marty rivered a king high flush to take the PLO title against heads-up opponent Peter Jetten.

“It seems so surreal,” said Marty. “This was my main hope for the WSOP as I do play a lot of Omaha and I think there were a lot of Hold’Em players sitting there because they play every event. I was never huge but never any less than average and I don’t remember getting cruelly outdrawn in any hands and that is pretty lucky to go the whole way though the tournament and win all the 50-50/60-40 hands and that’s what you need at the end.”
