And looking at this hands, i cant figure what could Skjervoy have in his hand to keep playing so hard. Perhaps he made a three of a kind at the flop, or two pairs hoping to get a full house... Very well played by Sahamies he didnt had much trouble, just waiting for the cards, starting with top pair and finishing with top flush, earning more than $400K, brilliant and hilarious. Someone could ask him "so how do you feel after this great conquer" and he could answer "i don't know what it happened, i just called".

This is the biggest pot but for pokerstars, the pots we were used to see on full tilt poker were a lot bigger than these one...
Isi actually won a 1.1 million dollars pot on full tilt poker vs phil ivey in a pot limit omaha heads up game, and the day before than he lost a 1.3 mil pot to patrik antonius...

after a horrible start this year, ilari sahamies is having some good runs at pokerstars. and regarding the pot, action is getting bigger at pokerstars and i think they'll break the fulltilt record soon.
