Phil Galfond AKA Omgclayaiken Wins Event #28: $5K Pot-Limit Omaha with Rebuys

152 players showed up for the Pot Limit Omaha with rebuys event. Like any rebuy tournament, it was pretty hectic during the rebuy period. Tom Dwan managed to rebuy an amazing 19 times and stuck $100k to the prizepool. Despite possibly breaking the record for most rebuys during this event, he was eliminated during the middle of Day 2 and left empty handed. Daniel Negreanu was estimated to have rebought around 17 times and was stuck at least $80k, but managed to make the money and come out a winner. One of the toughest final tables at a WSOP event went underway. John Juanda, Phil Hellmuth, David Benyamine, Kirill Gerasimov, Phil “OMGClayaiken” Galfond, Daniel Negreanu, Brian “tsarrast” Rast, Adam “the_houdini” Hourani, and Johnny Chan were the last 9 players standing on Day 3.

The now shuttered "LucLongley" alias is currently leading the way in the Pot Limit Omaha cash games on Full Tilt Poker with a total profit of $544k for the month of March. "KObyTAPOUT" has made the second largest amount in March with a total profit of $379k. "durrrr" rounds out the top three with a total haul of $302k for the month of March. "OMGClayAiken" has made approximately $164k in PLO for the month, while the always strong "trex313" has banked $170k.

are there any privacy concerns about publically outing winnings like that? i'd be pissed off beyond belief if my winnings or losses got reported/published like that

[frosst]

i dont think its any different than a pro sports player's contract being announced on espn. but there are several sites reporting players earnings........didn't a FTR'er start a site. B/c it mentioned Renton and someone else being the top earners at 2/4 or whatever

It is pretty public anyway.
