Pot-Limit Omaha Nosebleed Legend Wins the 2016 WSOP $25,000 PLO High Roller

An online nosebleed pot-limit Omaha legend took down the 2016 World Series of Poker $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller event in Las Vegas on Saturday.

Jens Kyllonen, a 26-year-old pro from Helsinki, Finland who has been a fixture in the highest stakes PLO games online for years, captured his first WSOP bracelet alongside the event's massive $1.127 million first-place prize.

Ecstatic after the win, Kyllonen said the feeling of winning a WSOP bracelet in a high roller event could only be compared to his biggest winning days online.

"I can't remember when I had this kind of rush," Kyllonen said.
