The WPT Omaha Second Chance event with $100 000 GTD collected 61 entries, but it was not enough to beat the guarantee, so there was an $8 500 overlay.
As a winner, Niklas "Lena900" Astedt received $31 200 for first place. Norwegian player Andreas Torbergsen turned out to be a runner-up, taking a prize of $21 700.
Given the small number of entries, only nine poker players could get enter the ITM zone. The minimum payout amounted to $3 850.
