Gus Hansen ($14,600), Daduv4 ($17,398.50) and LarsLuzak ($16,000) played $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi. LarsLuzak was also sitting at the Ivey Deathmatch $500/$1000 waiting for Phil Ivey to show up…Phil Ivey never showed up and Lars ended up leaving the table without any NL poker action.

LarsLuzak and Gus Hansen played heads up for awhile while Daduv4 sat out for about 10 hands. LarsLuzak won a $30k hand with a Ace high flush against Gus Hansen’s King high flush! Then LarzLuzak gave back the money when he lost with a Queen high staight to Gus Hansens….you guessed it…King high straight.

The Pot Limit Omaha Hi $200/$400 game was an active game on Full Tilt Poker.net. The chip counts were: maerliu ($12,994), TheSpeculator ($66,057), sbrugby ($40,000)
and Daduv4 ($57,990).

When I first started to observe the table TheSpeculator won a pot of $21,998 when he raised $27,400. There were two other players in the hand but they folded after already calling $5400 but with the huge raise by TheSpeculator, everyone folded.

Daduv4 won a large hand against maerliu with a two pair. maerliu had pocket kings and was raised all-in after the turn. maerliu called and the river was no help and lost the pot worth $26,158 to Daduv4. After losing this hand maerliu bought in for another 8k. Then went on to win 2 hands worth: $12,599 and $7,199…maerliu then took the money and ran leaving the table.

TheSpeculator continued his roll as he collected a monster pot of $51,199! Sbrugby re-raised TheSpeculator pre-flop for $4600. Then after the flop was [Qd 9d Ac] he bet another $8000 which the TheSpeculator called. They both checked the turn after an 6s was put on the board. The river card is a 6h and TheSpeculator raised $12,800 which Sbrugby called. TheSpeculator showed [2s 6c 3d Ad] for a full house, sixes full of aces while Sbrugby mucked his hand….Ouch

The $1000/$2000 Limit Omaha H/L game was busy tonight with Qrippoli,($51,156) Daduv4 ($94,906.50) and CryMeARiver8 ($32,994.50) playing.

When I started watching CryMeARiver8 took a nose dive going from $33k down to $9k and then over 10 hands he built his stack back up to $20k. It didn’t last long though…The next hand he loses an $18k pot to Daduv4 who won with a 3 of a kind queens. Then the very next hand he loses a pot to Qrippoli this time it was a $20.5k pot, folding on the river with $8k already invested in the hand. CryMeARiver8 then left the game after suffering huge loses and with only $2k.

After CryMeARiver8 left the action slowed down a lot and in 15 hands only one hand was over $10k. It was a folding fest with one player raising and the other folding. I stopped watching at this point so something may have gone down but I wasn’t there to report on it.

Phil Ivey was playing in a $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi game with 6 other players at Full Tilt Poker.net. I started watching after he sat down and played a couple hands but I am guessing he bought in for 50k (when I began to observe the table he had 53k). It was a high stakes game with most players stacks well over 20k. One player in particular: Daduv4 had $180k!

Phil Ivey won a huge hand against Sapster who in the beginning of the hand had $14,797. Sapster started the hand by raising to $800 while Ivey re-raised to $3000. Sapster called and so did another player at the table… so at that point they were three handed. The Flop was [Ah Qc 8h] and Ivey bet $9,600 and was re-raised all-in by Sapster for an additional $2,197. At the end of the hand the community cards were: [Ah Qc 8h 7s] [2c] with Phil Ivey holding [Ad Ac Ks 3h] giving him a three of a kind aces and Sapster losing with his hand [Jc Th 9d 8d] holding only a pair of 8’s. Phil Ivey won the pot worth $33,191.

David Benyamine another full tilt poker pro was also in the game. He won a large hand against Daduv4 and won $43,990 with a full house. The hand is in the noteworthy hands section of this post.
