The PokerStars New Year Series is rapidly approaching a thrilling conclusion, with the three No-Limit Hold'em Main Events shuffling up and dealing on January 15. We will not know the champions of those events until January 17 because they are three-day affairs, but we already know the Pot-Limit Omaha Main Event champion, Hungary's Benjamin "beastishngry" Juhasz.
The $215 buy-in PLO Main Event saw 646 players enter, leaving a substantial overlay on the $200,000 guaranteed prize pool, not that the 95 in-the-money finishers cared because it meant extra value for them.
