The online high stakes players were very active this weekend, even though the durrrr challange 2 did not continue, it still was one of the most exciting poker weekends this year. Huge amounts of money were exchanged at online tables, Gus Hansen lost $1,1 million in nearly 24 hours.
[3]The biggest match was fought at the Elevado table ($100/$300/$600 PLO 6-Max) on Saturday, with many poker celebrities such as Phil Ivey, Tom 'durrrr' Dwan, Patrik Antonius, Di 'Urindanger'' Dang, Scott 'URnotINdanger2' Palmer, and a newcomer by the name of 'cadillac1944'.
This years' 5th biggest pot was on the table this day, $528.618.
Because of this match cadillac1944 became the biggest loser of the day, losing $597.889, and it is highly possible he will not be able to continue high stakes. He still needs to learn how to choose his opponents carefully.
Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey continued his winning spree on Sunday as well, he was the leader by the end of the day with $678.760, beating Gus Hansen to death in $2.000/$4.000 Omaha Hi/Lo and in 7-game. When Cole South also robbed Hansen, he had to leave the tables with $1.174.267 lost.
