But it seems like the Finnish poker icon's economy still isn't all that good -- even though he has turned a big minus into a big plus in just 2-3 weeks time.

well is this a never ending story or what one week we hear that sahamies is broke, next week we hear that he has won half a million or so and is one the biggest winners online this year, next week we hear that sahamies is broke, week after we read about his winnings once more...bla bla bla- if there is nothing to write, just throw in same old broke/not broke story about sahamies
Well, this kind of aggro player needs winning streaks to win big. But mostly they have to stop playing when they're having a bad day. If only Isildur et him would do that, thet would be much richer.

This is not the first time Ilari Sahamies says he’s broke. His loaners aren’t public – at least not all, now we know one of them, Jens Kyllönen – and when he was loosing high he must have asked for Money with special agréments, like high taxes, which turns his victories into a few (if any) part for him and the big cake for those who lend him Money. I believe that, even with these last months good results, it’s still not enough to balance his global account.
