The Finnish poker pro Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies started 2010 with a few winning sessions and it looked very good for a while. But suddenly the poker gods turned against him and since then he has lost big almost every single month.
Last night Ziigmund took on Daniel "jungleman12" Cates in Pot Limit Omaha session, which only lasted 300 hands. Ziigmund lost $300,000 in this session and couldn't hold[...] Read more » Ziigmund: "I can't win a ******* pot"

yeah huge money to be lost in such a period!now he is on big tilt,when he start to curse poker and cards!he should take a break from poker for some period!
i think its all about his mindset. he should be going for some other things apart of poker. he's so eager to win back money that he infact loses more money :/

i don´t understand why so many pro´s play stupid online poker. They can go in a casino to play real they have enough money. I make the most of my money in live games not in online games. Lost in one day in a few hours 6-7 times with a flush vs Full house on the river on one site so i can understate the statement i can win not a ***** pot this i happend to me too many days online but in live games thats happend only one time from 10 times playing

WOW!!! its amazing the variance at this levels, and zigmund is obviously with the downswing mode turned on.
4millions its an huge sum to loss... but the same way you go down, you can get an upswing month and get 4 million back... variance is part of poker, and zigmund is clearly on the bad variance side in the last few months
Dear Ziigmund, notice that you're not the only one who can't win a ******* pot at the moment... but since you have the bankroll to keep trying then don't complain as you'll soon win big
