Event 5: Omaha Mama For The Win

$400 + $50 Omaha H/L 8B

Marialena D'Agostino Predicts a Win

Marialena D'Agostino loves Omaha and loves Hose tournaments. The Egg Harbor, NJ mother of a two and four year old, confidently plans on winning Event 5 and the upcoming BWO Hose event. "I plan on taking this down then going home to take care of my kids", said Marialena.

So why does she prefer Omaha over No Limit Hold-em? In Marialena's opinion, "Luck doesn't factor in as much in Omaha whereas in Hold-em it's easier to get out-drawn." Sounds like you can capitalize on weaker players and plays in Omaha. More skill, less luck.

Marialena's husband John, a well-known Full-Tilt Poker Player, will be grinding in several upcoming BWO hold-em tournies.
