Taylor Caby Battles “Dom_Barrigas” In H.O.R.S.E.

After an exhausting session at PartyPoker’s $50/$100 Stud tables, CardRunners instructor Taylor “Green_Plastic” Caby joined table 127391 for a $25/$50 NL Holdem heads-up match against “Dom_Barrigas”.

Caby skillfully managed wins in the first hour, taking over $8K profit. But that didn’t last long as “Dom_Barrigas” managed to win it all back and then some, using many aggressive poker moves on the river card.

Two hours of intense battle took place before “Green_Plastic” quickly scurried along after losing two critical five-figure pots. Only several minutes later, the successful online pro made a comeback and invited his opponent for a $50/$100 Limit Omaha Hi/Lo, but the game broke a few hands afterwards. As the match ensued the Portuguese was able to close his session with a nice $14K+ total win while Taylor Caby (-$46K) took the biggest loss.
