In some late night H.O.R.S.E. action, high stakes poker professional John D’Agostino managed a solid $68K+ win in the $1000/$2000 game over on Full Tilt Poker table Eli Elezra. A couple of other solid wins included David Benyamine ($40K+) and “taktloss47″ ($34K+). Eli Elezra (-$27K) and Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond (-$41K) were among the losers, but it was Chau “La Key U” Giang who would end up donating over $108K in 360 hands of action.
