After a good win earlier in the week, Ilari FIN fell flat against WithColor in yesterday's $200/$400 PLO matches

The biggest game from yesterday's nosebleed action took place between WithColor and Ilari "Ilari FIN" Sahamies at PokerStars $200/$400 PLO tables.

After playing an hour of $100/$200 PLO alongside Tom "tjbentham" Bentham and then Ski legend Petter "NorthugJr" Northug, WIthColor and Ilari FIN moved up in stakes to face each other heads-up.

They only played for an hour and a quarter, changing tables twice during that time, with WithColor turning a profit at each table.

His biggest win came from the first 35 minute $200/$400 session at table Charlois where WIthColor won $161.2k from just 96 hands, including winning two six-figure pots:

WithColor flops trips and is able to get three streets of value before scooping this $134.7k pot

This time WithColor flops a set and is again able to get value out of Ilari FIN who calls the turn and the river as WithColor takes this $148.3k pot

The biggest pot of the day also went to WithColor helping him to a $40k win at the final table the pair played:

Although this flop looks good for Ilari as he makes a big wrap draw with a flush draw (and a gutshot to a straight flush) he actually has less than 30% equity in the pot as WithColor flops top set with a higher flush draw. The deal is sealed as WithColor turns quads to take this $157.2k pot

In total, WithColor won $225k in the $200/$400 matches, ending the day up $217.7k after his small losses in the $100/$200 games are taken into account.

Second on the daily leaderboard was Cobus83, who won $82.6k from three hours heads-up play against Mikael "ChaoRen160" Thuritz at PokerStars $50/$100 PLO tables. Cobus83 was also Thursday's biggest winner with a $45.7k score and is up $128.3k over the last 48hrs at PokerStars.
