It's high time to take a look at last week's high stakes games online. Yes, even though the 42nd annual World Series of Poker is running at the moment - there are still some action at Full Tilt and PokerStars nosebleed tables.

I was beting on Blom, believing he would manage to win against PeppersoniF. Many say Blom has reached the top too early and that from now on it will only be falling down, but i believe he as a lot to give to poker. He got famous in a strange way, playing high stakes before reaching the top on "normal" stakes, but that was a possible way for him. If he wins that way, can he win in lower buy-ins? That's a different game...

looks like the break did good for him as he has come back strong with a nice win, lets see how long can he hold on this time ilari sahamies is again having a loss, looks like things havent changed for him yet.

Supernoob you are right again, my fiend, it seems that ilari ziigmund sahamies can't be on profit, even though the last time he played was a long time ago......
In my opinion he is also a very good poker player, i mean he really got avery good poker instinct but you need to have a balanced life in order to be good at poker too, in his case it's exactly the opposite, he really needs to change something in his personal life
By the way, Isilsur1 played today almost 500 hands, both pot limit omaha and no limit holdem, especially agains Sauce123 from Canada, at the end of the day, he was on minus though, quite low actually, Isildur1 only lost 10.000 dolars, which is not much at all considering the amounts he used to loss before

Hail the boy. The kid is too young and already highly commented in that poker wolrd. I consider the guy a real avant because they just open the way up. Congratulations to him and I hope one day be like him. Maybe not.
