The $500 + $50 Pot Limit Omaha 3 Lives tournament – Event 11 in the PokerStars Canada Cup, was scheduled to be a 2-day event though it seemed possible, even probable, that it would play down to a winner on Day 1. However when the players hit the end of 14 levels of play (30-minute levels), they decided to return tonight (Wednesday May 28) at 8pm as initially scheduled to finish up the event. There are just 3 players remaining.
