At the end of this month, there was another surge in activity at the high stakes tables at Full Tilt Poker. Multidimensional player once again David Benjamin managed to win two "fat" pots.
First, in pot-limit Omaha, he beat Tom Dwan (durrrr) to win a big pot of $ 432,980. The flop is 4-Q-8when Tom with hand J-8-9-10 took Benjamin's all-in. Benjamin's Aces-A-10-8 resisted.
Until yesterday, Finnish player Ilari Sahamies, playing under the nickname "Ziigmund", had a record plus of $ 1.8 million in September. In no-limit hold'em (500/1000), Tom Dwan was among his victims. He lost a pot of $ 449,495 to a Finn. The flop is 5-J-9 both players put all-in. With Jd-9s in hand, Tom had a slight advantage over "Ziigmund" K-10but Q on the river the outcome of the hand was decided in favor of the Finn.
Yesterday Benjamin managed to deprive the Finn of at least part of his September income in pot limit Omaha. At table 2-A-6-3-Q with a cold heart and hand 8-Q-K Benjamin called Finn's all-in and revealed his bluff at 8-5-6-7, took the $ 400,000 bank.
In the monthly rankings, Sahamies still remained the leader, ahead of Phil Ivey, while Patatino and Tom Dwan ended the month with the most severe losses of over a million dollars each. We look forward to further games at the high-flying tables.
