XWINK Down $1 Million on Full Tilt Poker in Past WeekGus Hansen Still Biggest Winner So Far in 2011 |
|
Unknown high stakes newcomer XWINK has been on a gravity railroad the past week, losing another mammoth chunk of his profits from the nosebleed games on Full Tilt Poker.
The Canadian began the past week playing in a multitable $300-$600 pot-limit Omaha session with Andreas “skjervoy” Torbergsen.
Their match was hyper aggressive throughout, as each player had gargantuan stacks on multiple tables. Below is a screen shot of Torbergsen shortly before he had reached $1 million on one of their five tables:
Despite showing a profit on some of the other tables, XWINK suffered a large loss versus his Norwegian opponent. A couple days later, XWINK dropped a combined $700,000 to NoPasaran and Dan “jungleman12” Cates in volatile pot-limit Omaha sessions.
With the losses over the past seven days, XWINK is in the black just $500,000 after winning $2 million over a three-day span earlier this month.
While XWINK has been spewing, Gus Hansen has been treading water recently on his $3 million in profits in 2011, which is still tops in the online world.
Hansen lost about $500,000 on Monday in a 1,000-hand match of $1,500-$3,000 deuce-to-seven triple draw against O Fortuna PLS.
However, the next night the Danish pro was able to take Cole South for nearly $300,000 in $500-$1,000 cap pot-limit Omaha to recover some of his losses. Despite the minor setback, Hansen still leads Cates and Matt Hawrilenko (each up about $1.8 million), Gavin “gavz101” Cochrane ($1.7 million), and Phil Ivey ($1.2 million) on the list of the biggest winners so far this year.
