Ziigmund Wins Biggest Pot in the History of PS - $421K
The Finnish daredevil Ilari 'Ziigmund' Sahamies took down the biggest pot in the history of PokerStars: the young pro won $421,836 with his nut flush at the online high stakes tables. Ziggy is on a rollercoaster ride recently, he was down more than $800k this year, but it seems his dowswing ended. The PokerStars $200/400 PLO tables are hot this September; the nosebleed action is bigger than ever. Many well-known pros like Andreas 'Skjervoy' Tobergsen, Phil 'MrSweets28' Galfond, Rafi 'refaelamit' Amit, socutiesf, bernard-bb and Ilari 'Ziigmund' Sahamies (Ilari FIN on PokerStars) battle each other in a marathon 10 hour session last night.
According to the data provided by HighstakesDB, Ziigmund emerged as the biggest winner leading with a $504,657 profit followed by Phil Galfond ($369,000) and Taiwanese 'socutiesf' ($114,000). The biggest loser came to be Torbergsen, who waved goodbye to $652,577. Ziggy's great results mostly come from a huge hand, where he took down the biggest pot in PokerStars' cash game history, $421,826.
You can watch the record-breaking hand below:
Ziigmund already scored a whopping $838,122 profit in September, with which he leads this month's profit list by far. I hope this time around he can keep his momentum and won't lose it as fast as he earned it.

Ilari FIN: $504.657 (3.272 hands)
