High stakes professionals Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond and Gus Hansen sat down on Full Tilt Poker table Pimp to play some heads-up $200/$400 Pot-Limit Omaha. They got in 42 hands during their 20-minute match before Gus sat out after dropping over $19K to his opponent. Galfond would go on to drop $7K+ as a result of a hit ‘n’ run pulled by “zebryck” on table Oboe. Add that hit to the loss against Hansen and an earlier $25K+ loss to “slaktarn”, and Galfond would finish his day with over $13K in heads-up PL Omaha losses.
