A great end to the day for Berndsen12
From hero to zero - mTw-DaviN goes from big winner to big loser in 24 hours

The ongoing rivalry between Sander "Berndsen12" Berndsen and Viktor "Isildur1" Blom recommenced yesterday, with the spoils headed most definitely in Berndsen12's favour.

Isildur had been having a pretty good morning having taken a bit from Berndsen and around $90k from Sundays big winner mTw-DaviN before Berndsen and Blom opened up some more tables late morning and proceeded to play through ost of the afternoon and evening with the Dutch pro pulling away from his Swedish foe at the end of the match. Berndsen was quoted last month as saying he believes he has a decent edge over Isildur1 in heads up PLO and the figures so far would suggest that he may well be right although to be fair to Blom, considering they played from early morning until late evening it was only actually during the final 30 minutes of play that Berndsen12 pulled away, taking nearly $300k from Isildur in the final stages of play

As ever there were plenty of decent pots in the $100/$200 encounter, here are the biggest three;

Berndsen12 is drawing dead when the money goes in - $106k pot

Isildur1's triple barrel bluff is picked off by Berndsen12 - $101k pot

Isildur1 is coolered on the river in this $98k pot

Had it not been for the final half an hour of play Isildur1 would have posted the biggest win on the leaderboard having also won a session versus Ilari FIN but as it is he ended up the day a $78k loser.

This was by no mean the biggest loss of the day though - that dubious honour belongs to the previous days biggest winner, mTw-DaviN who lost $229k, not only heads up to Isildur but also in the $50/$100 PLO ring games as he posted over 3,000 hands on his way to the big loss.

There were no other players posting either a six figure win or loss yesterday, the closest being a $94k win for donthnrmepls - mainly against the days biggest winner Berndesn12 at heads up NLHE $50/$100 and a $92k loss for Theo J in the PLO ring games.
