Farzad Bonyadi $7,285 and Mark Vos $9,090 played heads up Limit Omaha H/L. The average pot in the game was
$2362. Bonyadi was winning a majority of the hands and won most of the $3k+ hands with 2 flush’s and a straight. The game ended when Mark Vos had $5,481 and Bonyadi had $12,874 and sat out.
Gus Hansen $156,946 played against David Benyamine $16,000 and DanDock21 $4,300. They were playing in
$200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi. Gus Hansen was on a role during the poker session. He beat Benyamine’s three of a kind with a straight for $33k. Then beat the two pair of DanDock with a three of a kind for $28k, two hands later he won with a full house against Dan Dock’s pair of aces and won a pot of $16k. The very next hand he won $29k from Benyamine….basically Gus Hansen was tearing up the table. When I stopped watching he had well over $200k.
Today was a big day for David Benyamine. It looks like he was just given his own personal avatar at full tilt poker. Instead of the avatar of an elephant he now has his own personal avatar of himself. He was playing heads up against Gus Hansen in a $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi Game.
When I first came to the table David Benyamine had $356,203 and Gus Hansen had $45,582.50. I am thinking his avatar game him some luck and he had a great day at the poker tables because I have never seen him buy-in for more then 100k. So he must have won the rest of other players.
Gus Hansen lost a large pot to Benyamine when his three of a kind was beat by Benyamine’s 9 high straight. The pot was worth $79,959. The game ended on this hand when Hansen sat out and David Benyamine ended up with all the money on the table: $399,370…Close to a half million dollars. Not a bad day.

Ziigmund was having a great day from what I could tell. His chip stack was $211,255 when I began watching (He must have doubled or tripled up off someone earlier at the table) and he was adding to that by playing very well against David Benyamine. He was playing at a $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi Table. More players came to the table after about 30 hands and they were DanDock21 and EatMyAssSucka.
After watching a little over 40 hands Ziigmund had built his chip stack up to $300k! When I stopped watching the table Ziigmund had $325k.
Phil Ivey was sitting at the table of two games of Pot Limit Omaha Hi. The tables were filled with high stakes players and many of the same players were playing on both tables including: sbrubgy, David Benyamine and Ziigmund. Phil Ivey was sitting out at the gladiator table most of the time while I was watching, but he was playing in the Pantheon table and had $106k.
Phil Ivey won a pot worth $48,794 when David Benyamine went all-in after the flop with a three of a kind and ended up losing to Ivey’s 8 high straight.
Ziigmund won large hands including a $91,591 pot from David Benyamine when his straight beat Benyamine’s 3 of a kind. ( I see a pattern with David Benyamine and losing to straight’s).
Midway through Phil Ivey ended up leaving the gladiator table never playing a hand so I stopped watching that table to focus on the Pantheon table. This table now had iammagic and whatitdogirl playing.
When I left Phil Ivey had$63k after folding with a $40k pot when David Benyamine went all-in for another $38k.
LarsLuzak ($78,578.50) , My G Rocks ($36,999.50) and sbrugby ($40,000) played $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi. While I watched LarsLuzak and My G Rocks were going heads up and about 20 hands into the match sbrugby joined the table.
The game didn’t last long after sbrugby joined because of a hand between LarsLuzak and My G Rocks. The pot was worth $71,991 and My G Rocks ended up losing to LarsLuzak’s two pair. My G Rocks went broke and left the table. Lars Luzak and sbrugby played a couple hands of heads up poker but sbrugby ended up leaving after 3 hands. (more…)
Gus Hansen and maerliu were playing $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha Hi. I was watching for about 20 hands. When I first started watching the table, maerliu had $5.3k and Hansen had $19.5. This quickily changed as the next hand maerliu won an all-in hand with a queen high straight. They then played about 18 more hands until finally Gus Hansen won a 19k pot with two pair and maerliu went all-in and lost and decided not to rebuy.
