Isildur1 swings and misses as Ilari Sahamies wins big

Tuesday, 30 August 2011

Amazingly, Ilari “The PLO specialist formerly known as Ziigmund” Sahamies is almost out of the $800,000 hole he found himself in when he first joined the high stakes games on PokerStars as “Ilari_FIN”. He cleaned out Viktor “Isildur1” Blom in a high stakes heads-up Omaha session, winning almost $500,000.

Blom has been following a pattern of crushing the 6-max high stakes PLO games before losing it all back to a heads-up monster. He did it the other day with Phil “MrSweets28” Galfond, winning six figures on the ring games and giving it back to arguably the best Omaha heads-up player in the world.
Of course, Sahamies is also arguably the best heads-up Omaha player in the world and things went similarly. He netted $482,000 from Blom and that puts him up over $750,000 in the past 60 hours – he is close to being in the black on PokerStars within just a few days of recovery.
