VeniVidi1993 And Tony G Star In Wild $20k PLO Game on CoinPokerA Look At The $100-$200 Nosebleeds Pot Limit Omaha Action From The Weekend |
|
CoinPoker has been home to some of the highest stakes poker action of 2024, especially on its pot-limit Omaha tables.
While smaller in overall player base than other major sites, being open to worldwide players with crypto deposits, proof of reserves on the blockchain and soft PLO cash game traffic has caused many players to make it their new site of choice.
In the nosebleed games many of the best PLO players in the world like Omaha4rollz, GucciNIKE, and Chattahoochee are often seen battling with Tony G – who played in the largest online poker pot in history on CoinPoker in 2022.
On the no-limit hold’em tables, popular poker streamers from across Twitch and YouTube – Charlie Carrel, Jonathan Little, KakiTee, GazzyB123 and others – often feature in VIP exhibition matches as part of the site’s viral marketing efforts.

Sunday evenings CET are the best time for railbirds to catch the high stakes action, and during its Crypto Series of Poker (CSOP) tournament events. Last month’s CSOP saw a $1000/$2000 heads up game briefly run between GucciNIKE and unknown player cggendron.
Pot-limit Omaha action from $100/$200 to $500/$1000 often runs around Tony G, although he’s certainly no fish – making an incredible river call this Sunday against Dutch pro Venividi1993, who plays as Bitcoinboi on CoinPoker and under his real name Dirk Gerritse on GGPoker.
High Stakes Pot Limit Omaha Recap
Watch Tony G’s big calldown at 2:41 and more highlights from the PLO20k session in the video below:
Across three tables of $100/$200 with antes, VeniVidi and Tony G were involved in many big hands, and this one began with Bitcoinboi holding A-Q-9-8 double suited in the blinds.
High stakes pot-limit Omaha reg MrainerWinkler straddled to $400, Tony G raised to $1.5k, and KaskaGrrossa called – Portugal’s Tomás Ribeiro, another crusher who final tabled the Triton Series $100k PLO event.
VeniVidi elected to squeeze to $6.4k, MrainerWinkler folded, and the pot was already close to $20,000 on the K-8-3 flop with two spades. The flop checked around.
VeniVidi then took a stab on a blank 6 turn for one third pot, and only Tony G called. The pot was now $33k.
On a ‘clean’ Jack river, VeniVidi decided to shove, unblocking spades. His bet put Tony G all in for his remaining $20.5k if he had ‘enough heart’ to make the call.
Tony G Holds His Own Versus The PLO Pros
Tony G went into his timebank, but finally did make the ‘amazing’ call with Q-J-9-2, holding missed spades as VeniVidi hoped but rivering one pair.
Tony G posted a video from his grind station with his pet dog, stating ‘I qualified, I got a Jack baby’.
That wasn’t the only impressive call – in another hand shortly after with MrainerWinkler, TonyG faced a turn check raise on Q-7-3-9 two clubs, again holding just middle pair and a weak draw.
Putting his opponent on a combo draw and holding some of those outs, he chose to three bet all in and held.
In another big call on #pokernight Tony G bets turn after flop goes check / check. High stakes reg MrainerWinkler check raises pot, and Tony shoves with just middle pair and some of villain's outs if he's right.

VeniVidi1993 Grinds Back
Down two buy-ins early into the match, VeniVidi eventually grinded it back and went on to win over $100k in the session.
Part of his comeback was another pot with Tony G at 13:37. KaskaGrrossa straddled, VeniVidi called with A-J-8-4 single suited, and Tony G raised to $1,800 from the small blind.
Heads up on a T-T-9 flop, VeniVidi called intending to float given Tony’s small bet sizing, calling again on a king turn.
On an 8 river, Tony again bet small, $1.7k into $10.9k. VeniVidi raised to $8.3k sensing weakness, and Tony G quickly folded.
VeniVidi slowly grinded up to an over $100k stack on several tables, as did Tony G.

In another pivotal hand at 19:07 VeniVidi picked up K-K-5-4 single suited, facing a raise from samjazzykins to $1500.
Flopping the second nut flush, VeniVidi decided to start with a check, stating the 9-7-6 board was ‘super bad for his range’, so he wanted to protect his range by ‘checking with lots of hands that are strong’.
He then got max value betting turn and river as a result, stacking villain with a lower flush.
