John Binns

It was a near-lock that we’d see John Binns in today’s PLO8 field, he can pull off a unique accomplishment with a win.

Binns took home the trophy from the $400 version of this tournament last Saturday and followed that up with a $600 Limit Omaha 8 title on Thursday. Today he goes for his third trophy of the series and fifth overall.

In our history, only two players have won three tournaments in the same series; Julio Fernandez  (2012 Showdown) and Atanael Thomas (2012 RRPO).

Binns is trying to join them.
