High stakes gamblers Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies and Phil Ivey met up on Full Tilt Poker table Ivey Thunderdome to play some $500/$1000 Pot-Limit Omaha. After just 10 minutes of action, Sahamies wasn’t in the mood to play any longer and offered Ivey to gamble for the $171K that sat in front of him. Ivey readily agreed and so they both pushed in their large stacks pre-flop and created a huge $258K pot. Unfortunately for Ivey, he was dealt trip Deuces in his hand and couldn’t do much as Sahamies took down the monster flip. Along with the $29K that Sahamies had won prior to the gamble, he was able to leave the table with an overall $158K win in just 20 hands against Ivey.
