Although the $200/$400 PLO games seem to have broken since the latest rise and fall of Isildur1 there were still some six figure winners yesterday. The biggest being Slovenian pro Matej "mtvdeuem" Cepon who cleaned up at the $25/$50 and $50/$100 PLO games yesterday logging a $152.5k win. We also saw some great poker from Gus "broksi" Hansen who walked away a $149.5k winner for the day.
In fact Hansen could have had an brilliant day had he stuck to one of his favourite games, Omaha Hi Lo - a games in which he is a +$4million winner over at Full Tilt. He actually took $600k at the Hi Lo tables, much of it from madmags4 who has seen his previous weeks winnings destroyed by the Great Dane, but lost over $200k playing 2-7 triple draw and $60k playing PLO. Also, as a +$142.2k session started at past 2am server time (9pm European time) it will not be included in todays results. Nevertheless, a good day for Hansen is a good day for the highstakes games as he is a great action player who always helps build great high stakes games.
The biggest hands of the day occurred at the $50/$100 PLO ring games, here are the top three;
fadil555's flopped two pair are crushed as BenyamineX flops a set of Aces - $85.3k pot
A very unfortunate river for VietRussian hands this $64k pot to mtvdeuem
Action flop as fadil555 flops a set against St1ckman's flopped nut flush and open ended straight draw - the straight completes on the turn for this $63.1k pot
Some of 2012's biggest winners were actually the chief donators at the $50/$100 tables last night as MrSweets28 and EireAbu were for once on the losing end of things. In fact, Isildur1 made a reappearance yesterday and once again put a beat on EireAbu heads up to the tune of $80k. However, his current desire to improve his limit games cost Isildur any profit for the day as he ended up a marginal loser.
