Tiimofey "Trueteller" Kuznetsov Wins $178k at NLHE, PLO, Triple Draw and 8-Game
Russian pro Timofey "Trueteller" Kuznetsov had a good day at PokerStars high stakes tables yesterday, winning $178,056 between the NLHE, PLO, Triple Draw and 8-Game tables.
Kuznetsov played almost two thousand hands yesterday, playing from early afternoon until late evening. His first success was at the $100/$200 2-7 NL Triple Draw tables against Mongano where he won close to $6k from an hour of play.
He fared better in his next endeavour, some heads-up $1k/$2k 8-Game against Swedish pro Mikael "ChaoRen160" Thuritz. The pair played for three hours in total with Trueteller winning just under $34k, although at one point the Russian pro was up over $90k against his Swedish rival.
Whilst playing in his mixed game with ChaoRen160, Trueteller also joined the line up in some $100/$200 NLHE games which ran for a lot of the afternoon and for most of the evening, featuring the likes of LLinusLLove, Stambolov, ICEMAN2710, and Educa-p0ker. In total Trueteller won $66k from the NLHE games.
The biggest pot of the day came from these NLHE games:
Educa-p0ker flops a set of 9's and manages to extract maximum value from LLinusLLove who only shows up with second pair as he loses this $60.5k pot
The remainder of Trueteller's profit for the day came from a few sessions at the $100/$200 PLO tables against BERRI SWEET, with Trueteller getting much the better of things, winning another $72k for good measure.
Second on yesterday's leaderboard was ICEMAN2710 who ended the day up $76,852 after playing for more than twelve straight hours throughout the day. He put in some 2,788 hands at the $25/$50, $50/$100 and $100/$200 NLHE tables, with most of his winnings coming from an 8-hour stint at a $25/$50 table where he won over $65k.
OhHeyCindy came in third with a $36,319 profit from almost 2k hands, most of which took place at the $25/$50 NLHE tables, and Grazvis1 ended the day fourth on the daily leaderboard with a $24,223 win from 1.1k hands yesterday afternoon and evening at the $25/$50 and $50/$100 PLO ring games.
