Vlad on Poker: Poker Tips, Strategies, and Reviews as only a Russian can do it!

While finishing up on some work late at night yesterday, I logged on FullTilt to check out the high stakes action.. and what a treat it was! There were a bunch of heads up tables running with Isildur1 and durrrr having close to $2 Million real cash between them. They were waging a $500/$1000 NLHE blood bath sessions running into hours and thousands of hands.

At the end of the day, Isildur1 continued his epic upswing tearing through the bankrolls of his high-stakes rivals, earning over $1,220,000 throughout the course of the night. Three of the biggest hands from this session topped $500,000 with the largest – a $574,000 monster – seeing durrrr get it in with a pair and flush draw on the turn against top set, failing to hit his seven outs and losing his $286,000 stack. This is somewhat reminiscent of a recent hand I caught in live action.. Although at that time I was up only against a top pair with a kicker… of course, only about $200 involved at that time :)

The session ended with both players – each apparently believing themselves to have a large edge against the other – making arrangements to play again:

Isildur1: ok im done i can hardly see my cards
durrrr: huh
durrrr: rly?
Isildur1: yes
durrrr: sweet
Isildur1: i play u every day
Isildur1: pls
durrrr: ok
Isildur1: im not running u
durrrr: lets play tomorrow
Isildur1: yupp
durrrr: will u quit
durrrr: if ur playing someone else
durrrr: to play me pls?
durrrr: u won 1.3m today
Isildur1: i will play till u quit
Isildur1: tomorrow
durrrr: ok
