Huge Pots at FTP High Stakes Tables
www.HighStakesDB.com reported this week
that a new record in chip stacks was set, with
Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond enjoying big success
in the 6-max games on www.FullTiltPoker.com .
At one point during a remarkable session over
the weekend, Galfond was sitting on a stack of
$1.5 Million at a $500/$1,000 NLHE 6-max table.
The $1.5 million stack is believed to be the largest
stack at a single table in online poker history.
Despite experiencing a couple of big hit reversals,
Galfond left with $1,266,264, also a new record.
During the action Galfond apparently won 3
seperate pots each valued at well over $400,000.
Over the past week the action around risk-taker
Tom "durr" Dwan had some exciting moments, too.
On December 5th playing Hold'em NL $500/1,000
he achieved a very impressive profit of $955,000
having totally dominated all opponents including
formidable names like Phil Ivey and Gus Hansen
over a 24 hour period. He left the tables with
$455,000 and $772,000 stacks for an overall
profit of +$955,000.
On December 6th, Dwan was at the tables again,
this time pushing his 24 hour winnings up over a
million dollars by winning his largest hand ever,
$657,000.
The other side of the coin was a staggering
$1.4 Million loss for player "Ziigmund" in a
NLHE game on December 7th, when the player's
successful run in recent days came to an abrupt
and expensive end.
He wasn't alone, player "Elmariachimacho"
took a $750,000 hit, too. The losers shipped it to
the still successful OMGClayAiken (+ $613,000)
durr (+ $501,000) and Urindanger (+ $409,000).
