I have discussed this with Tom and Matt and I can assure you that the event will definitely have five phases to it.
With five phases, country captains will have to allocate their four players in the following way:-
Day One
Phase 1 - NLHE, NLHE, NLHE, NLHE
Phase 2 - NLHE, NLHE, PLO, PLO
Phase 3 - HU
Day Two
Phase 4 - NLHE, NLHE, PLO8, PLO8
Phase 5 - MTT
With over three months to go, captains should be able to ensure they have at least two players in their team who are expert in Omaha and 08.
The Main Event and the World Amateur Team Championship are the two most high profile tournaments of the WCOAP and we think the above format will lead to another superbly competitive event.

Errrrrrrrrrrr, I see the OP has now been updated as requested but it is now showing FOUR phases not FIVE. Could this please be confirmed, as at no point since the quoted post above has it been suggested that there will only be four phases. I didn"t see anybody disapproving of the above clarification.
Getting a tad frustrated with Des saying one thing and Tom saying another.

We"re not saying one/another thing - I just posted it wrong!

Thanks for changing the OP. That"s the first time I"ve seen that schedule.
With your original post suggesting four phases, Des later confirming 5 phases and you then posting 4 phases after my request for clarification yesterday I stand by my comment that you and Des were saying different things. As Roy Walker would suggest I can only say what I see.

Well I"m hoping it"s correct now - I"ve double-checked all other threads on the subject also - so hopefully they all are "in agreement" with each other!

I"m happy we"re going to play PLO8 or Pot limit Omaha hi/lo is what i know it better as...I"m definitely not an expert and probably play too many hands but I mostly do this tournament for the fun!! I"m not looking for professional poker players who specialise in other variants...I"ve never played either PLO or PLO8 live before so I"m really looking forward to it!!! I usually play NLHE or PLHE but get bored with them so try and play other variants like HOSE, HORSE or 8 game...come on you poker players broaden your horizons....Poker sites have tons of PLO8 (hi/lo) games on it ...get practising I say!! :)
