Facing off against two different opponents, “Ziigmund” did not do so well during some $200/$400 heads-up PL Omaha action on Full Tilt Poker table Oboe. First up was high stakes pro Phil Ivey in which “Ziigmund” dropped over $47K in just 100+ hands. This was of course thanks to a $104K+ coin flip that Ivey took down in which both players just decided to shove their stacks all-in. Later on in the day it was “livingonjsandqs” who took over 200 hands to win his $43K+ from his opponent, giving “Ziigmund” a total $90K+ loss on the day.

    I love coin flips, especially when Phil Ivey is involved. It’s actually been a long time since I’ve seen a coin flip in a high stakes online poker game. The last one was just a 20k flip, two times.
