It was a fairly quiet day at the high-stakes tables on Full Tilt Poker yesterday with little-heard-of Jared “harrington25” Bleznick playing thecranium heads-up at $200/$400 CAP PLO.
In total, Bleznick wound up a shade under $200,000 on the day - $194,861 in 1,499 hands to be precise – with the bulk of those earnings coming against thecranium in the CAP PLO game.Making $175,000 via a series of $16,000 pots isn’t easy but Bleznick had a large helping of luck, as is typical for Omaha where the ranges and hand values run so much closer than Hold ‘em. In total, he won 26 out of 34 capped pots which led him to this decisive victory.Brian Townsend had a decent day, making around $50,000 while thecranium occupied the unfortunate spot at the bottom of the leaderboard, having lost $300,000 on the day.Watch the action live at Full Tilt Poker.
