Another event at the 2020 Aussie Millions that has surpassed the field size of the previous year is Event #6 A$2,500 Pot-Limit Omaha. Back in 2019, Steve Moreschi topped a field of 145 entries to take home A$82,825 for his efforts and the 2020 edition drew a total of 170 entries, creating a prize pool of A$382,500.

The top 18 spots were paid at least A$4,780 and Day 1 concluded with 35 minutes remaining in level 17 as the final table of the last nine was reached. Several mixed game aficionados showcased their talents and reached the final nine including the WSOP bracelet winners Jeff Madsen (318,000), Benny Glaser (241,000), and Martin Kozlov (111,000). Germany's Maxi Lehmanski is also in the mix with a stack of 169,000 while a trio from Australia tops the leader board.

Richard Johnston leads the finalists by some margin with a stack of 668,000 followed by local regular Sherif Derias (456,000) and Wei Jin (327,000). Furthermore, Alexander Everitt (156,000) and PLO specialist James Gilbert (106,000) complete the final table line-up. For Gilbert it is the first trip to the Aussie Millions and he has enjoyed the experience in the city so far.

Lehmanski and Glaser have also previously visited Down Under in their poker exploits and aim to bring the ANTON Jewellery Championship ring home this time around.
