Oh, the cutting-edge Westgate website doesn't provide much information? How surprising.
Wednesdays is $20, No-Limit Omaha. I have not played this tourney enough, as my Wednesday nights have typically been busy with other commitments. However, from my experience, the tourney is SUPER juicy, and usually gets 5 or so tables.
PLO cash action has been known to break out once in a while, but as is usually the norm with the Westgate tourney donks, they bring their $50, and if they bust out of the $20 tourney, they try to short-buy 1-2 and see if they can double up and win their buy-in back. Any PLO action is going to be the younger guys there to pick on the spots.
Variance as expected will be high in the tourney, but goodness, you can instantly spot anyone who has the slightest clue about hand strength or odds.
Also, that $15 TJ's Monday tourney might be the best value in town given the buy-in. $20 Westgate Saturday afternoon tourney also gets huge turnout.
However, Westgate has gone to a new tip-sharing program that has caused some of their best dealers to quit. They also seem constantly under-staffed. That place is kept alive purely b/c of their location and past reputation. Management is slowly trying to kill it off.
