There was a late night game of heads-up $500/$1000 H.E.R.O.S. going down between “Rekelme” and Chau Giang over on Full Tilt Poker table Hollow. These two players battle it out for around 80 minutes with “Rekelme” collecting over $33K during Omaha Hi/Lo action. Towards the end of their battle, Howard Lederer would sit in and pick up a small $1,500 win in 18 hands before Giang decided to call it quits. “Rekelme” would follow suit and leave the table with an impressive $60K+ win after 300 total hands at the table. Despite winning a good number of big hands, Giang suffered a $62K+ total loss in the game.
