Monday morning (European time) was pretty exiting at Full Tilt Poker. “present” was the big winner and ended up sitting with over $700k in front of him:

The table was tougher than ever. Chris “Genius28″ Lee, Tom “durrrr” Dwan, David Benyamine, Patrik Antonius and “present” were playing. “present” was doing great job at the table - the biggest pot was when he flopped two pairs against Tom Dwan´s top pair and nut a flush draw:

Patrik Antonius has been running hot lately and this day didn’t change his direction. In few minutes he won a $263k and a $449k pot in RailHeaven and his own PLO table. In first one, Antonius limped in and “present” raised to $5k. Genius28 re-raised to over $16k and after long thought, Antonius called as did “present” also. Flop was a tough one for Genius28 when Antonius hit set of jacks when Genius had the AA:

At the PLO table four players saw the flop and the pot was already $96k before he flop. Antonius flopped a set of aces and he got nice value against Benyamines draws. Pot was a massive $449k which is third in biggest online pot in history (if you count that pr1nnyraid pot):

After that Antonius was sitting with over $850k in four different tables. Antonius didn’t play long with his deep stacks and he left from the tables where he had big stacks. Soon he came back with a new max buy-in and durrrr and pr1nnyraid didn’t like that:

pr1nnyraid: guys get patrik to sit back in here
durrrr: hes too sick a nit
pr1nnyraid: its his table thats so lame
durrrr: agreed
durrrr: he sat out of plo too b/c we got too deep
durrrr: and i had position got too deep

Later Rosenkranz continued chatting with Antonius:

pr1nnyraid: come back to rail heaven
pr1nnyraid: its your table!
pr1nnyraid: you cant put out a challenge to the NL
players then not play with us
Patrik Antonius: sry too many games going on
pr1nnyraid: gl
Patrik Antonius: lets play hu one day again when there is
no other big games going
Patrik Antonius: gl buddy
pr1nnyraid: k sure
pr1nnyraid: cya
Patrik Antonius: u have an edge but i like your action

“durrrr”:s morning session was strange. He won big time in PLO, but NL Holdem didnt work. One time he had over $900k in front of him in 4-tables and still he was down little bit. PLO stacks were $401k, $252k & $70k. Also he had $150k in RailHeaven.
“durrrr” was pretty agressive in RailHeaven and he even won a $165k pot with 5h2h!

Present bought $100k to table RailHeaven and everything was heading right for him. This one had nice action but was splitted:

In the end “present” had a $703k stack which meant that he was $603k up for that RailHeaven session.
Krantz was down over $-180k for his RailHeaven session. Antonius was winning good, but David Benyamine and ICallSoWhat were the biggest losers in morning sessions. “durrrr” won a lot in PLO but NL Holdem didnt do so well and he was pretty much even after he finished.

Here are the results from the RailHeaven table:

present: +600k

Genius28: +175

Patrik Antonius: +100k

David Benyamine: +50k

durrrr: -460k

pr1nnyraid: -180k

ICallSoWhat: -100k
