We reported earlier about the huge cash games that are currently running in the Rio Hotel and Casino, and now CardPlayer.com tells us more about these wild games.

The site tells that so far one of the biggest losers in the game has been Tom "durrrr" Dwan, but does not reveal how much Dwan is down.

Ashton "theASHMAN103" Griffin has instead been running hot in the games so far.

"A huge pot-limit Omaha game with $1.5 million on the table was also running on Saturday night, this time with Kido Pham, David Benefield, Andrew Robl, Pat Madden, and Rick Solomn. The unknown Texan who has allegedly been up for more than three days straight, was also in the game.

One of the massive hands for the aforementioned crew was Benefield vs. Solomon. On his first hand after buying in for $50,000, Solomon got all his money in with the QDiamond Suit QClub Suit 9Diamond Suit 9Club Suit on a flop of 8Heart Suit 7Diamond Suit 2Diamond Suit, against the ADiamond Suit KDiamond Suit JClub Suit 2Club Suit of Benefield. Solomon asked Benefield how many times he wanted to run it, and Benefield replied “as many times as possible.” After quickly deciding to run it four times, the dealer burned and turned for the first run through. Remarkably when it was all over, Benefield was the winner after each board.

One of the big losers so far in the massive Rio games has been Tom Dwan, according to one of the room’s high stakes players, Randy Dorfman"

The games at Bobby's Room are also getting huge - Brian Hastings told nine hours ago that he was "playing $2000/$4000 mix in Bobby's Room - plo / 2-7 / o8".
