Most of Dwan’s winnings came from a Full Tilt team member Patrik Antonius, who had a huge losing day. Everything seemed to go wrong for Antonius and eventually he ended up losing over $945k! Nobody came even close to his numbers, as the second biggest loser was a compatriot of Antonius, Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies, who lost around $137k.

Dwan, Phil Ivey and Antonius played together for a while in “GusHeaven”, a $500/$1000 no limit hold’em table at Full Tilt Poker. At first, Phil Ivey was a table captain and build his stack to around $500k. Ivey eventually left with around $300k of profit and left Antonius and Dwan to battle against each other.

Antonius lost his money in just 974 hands, so he lost almost $1000 in every hand! Phil Ivey on the other hand played 321 hands, so he won almost $1k in each of his hand!

Here are the biggest hands of the session from the highstakes database.

Antonius and Dwan go allin, durrrr holding a top pair with top kicker against a open ended straight draw of Antonius.

Dwan hits a gutshot straight after check-check on the flop and gets paid by a mystery hand held by Antonius.

Ivey and Dwan both hit the flop hard and all the money go in to the pot on the flop. A pot worth of $248k.

Antonius gives once again his stack to durrrr, when Antonius hits top pair, but Dwan flop a set. Dwan wins $315k.

This hand was the biggest hand of the session , worth of $361k. Ivey flops bottom pair with straight and flush draws against overcards and a bigger flush draw of Antonius.

With the winnings yesterday, Phil Ivey broke a $7 million mark for the money earned this year! He has won approximately $6 million after his return to the high stakes tables at Full Tilt Poker later on in the summer.
