“present” and “the guru 11″ were playing some evening high stakes No-Limit Hold’em on Full Tilt Poker. “the guru 11″ found himself up $59K+ after a 50-minute battle of $300/$600 NLH on table Halbert. Over an hour later, high stakes young gun Cole South had pulled a $37K hit ‘n’ run and “present” was looking to make his money back. He would do just that as “present” raked in over $135K during a 75-minute session of $200/$400 NLH against “the guru 11″ on table Ahern. “the guru 11″ would leave the table and return over two hours later to continue the action on table Aubert. After another hour plus, “the guru 11″ was able to win back $26K+ before leaving the table with just a total $49K+ loss to “present”. With the $37K+ loss to South, “present” was still able to finish his 616 total hands of heads-up action with over $71K in winnings.
