The action online is getting crazier and crazier. In an attempt to still their hunger for action Durrrr (Tom Dwan) and Ziigmund (Ilari Sahamies) gave their own twist to PLO: instead of playing the normal game at the $500/1,000 tables they both agreed to raise and reraise every single pot, both committing $9,000 before the flop comes down. Ofcourse this results in some massive pots, including the largest online pot-limit omaha pot ever, worth $703,000!

This is what happened:

After Dwan made the compulsory opening raise to $3,000 and Sahamies put in his required reraise to $9,000, Dwan pushed the action with a four-bet to $27,000. Sahamies called and they saw a flop of {J-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Both players checked and the {7-Diamonds} landed on the turn. Sahamies led out for $54,000, Dwan raised to $216,000, and Sahamies moved in for his entire $324,463 stack. Dwan called, having him covered, and showed {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for a queen-high flush draw, a gutshot straight draw, and a pair of tens. Sahamies was a 3-to-1 favorite, however, with {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} for a jack-high straight and two pair. The river improved Sahamies’ hand further, falling the {J-Clubs} to make him jacks full of sevens, good for the nearly $703,000 pot.

And something’s telling me that this isn’t the end of the high stakes madness.
