Ilari FIN Wins $166k at PLO in a Big Day of Action

Ilari played a long $200/$400 PLO session yesterday and came out on top

There was plenty of high stakes PLO action over at PokerStars yesterday with fan favourite Ilari "Ilari FIN" Sahamies coming out on top, netting a $166k win. In fact Ilari's win could have been a lot higher as he was approaching $400k profit at one point during yesterdays sessions, riding high on the $200/$400 tables where he took on the likes of Jeans89, Terken89, PepperoniF, Ben86, The Liar & ValueClown in a combination of six max and heads up play.

Although Ilari also played plenty of $50/$100 and $100/$200 it was the $200/$400 session which dominated the game as he played 682 hands over around 7 hours at table Nerina yesterday. The big guns are also back in play today with Ilari currently holding his own across three tables of $200/$400 PLO.

There have been four six figure hands over the past 24 hours, and here they are in full - with Ilari taking the biggest pot of yesterday;

Ben86 bluffs with his busted flush draw and is looked up by Ilari FIN in this $166.3k pot

Betting into Jeans89's flopped quads was never going to be a good move as Ilari FIN loses this $136.8k pot

The Liar outflops Ilari's Aces in this $103.6k pot

It's a pity for Ben86 that his opponents stacks weren't bigger after this hugely action heavy flop and subsequent four way all in - $100k pot

Other than Ilari, there was one other six figure winner yesterday as Jeans89 put in a +$117.3k performance. He also has been running well today at the $200/$400 PLO tables and yesterdays win put him back over $2 million profit for the year at PokerStars high stakes tables.

It wasn't such a great day however for Ben86 whose magnificent run of form over the past couple of months seemed to temporarily desert him as he ended the day a $264.6k loser. Dropping $166k at table Nerina, where he played alongside the other $200/$400 PLO stars for four hours. Ben also suffered at the $25/$50 and $50/$100 PLO tables yesterday. He still remains a six figure winner for September however.
