More High Stakes Action in CAP PLO on Full Tilt Poker

written by: John under News Comments: Comments Off

Just a day after Gus Hansen won an astounding $250,000 in roughly 12 minutes from Di “URinDanger” Dang at the $500/$1,000 CAP PLO tables on Full Tilt Poker another player with a similar screen-name had his own troubles in those same $500/$1,000 CAP PLO games.

This time around it was Scott “URnotINdanger2” Palmer who saw a sizable portion of his bankroll head across the table to his opponent, the online poker legend Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond. According to www.highstakesdb.com, Galfond and Palmer played a long 1,425-hand session that ended with Galfond showing a hefty $750,000 profit.

The win erased the $500,000 hole that Galfond was in at the online tables in 2011, and completely reversed the fortunes of Palmer who was one of the biggest winners up to this point. Palmer’s profit plummeted from just over $1 million to around $250k after his battle with the online poker legend “OMGClayAiken”.

Galfond has been splitting his time between Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars –where he plays under the screen-name of “MrSweets28”—taking on Team PokerStars Pro Viktor ‘Isildur1’ Blom in a number of PLO matches, and getting the better of the young Swedish poker pro up to this point. Although, when the highest stakes action in online poker is going, Galfond will be found at Full Tilt Poker taking on the top players in the world.
