In fact, to be exact, it should be said that Blom "swing" as much as usual.
First, let's talk about Gus. Last week, in only 12,365 hands, Gus has lost nearly half a million on the Full Tilt Poker tables. This adds to its losses of the past few years. Since the re-opening of Full Tilt Poker, Hansen has already lost several million dollars.
True to himself, Blom has a big "up and down". During a 3-hour session on August 19, he won $250,000 on the $1,500 / $3,000 tables in 8-games.
A little later in the day, he was losing $50,000 (in the profits of jungleman12). Still later, Blom had gain back his money at the hands of Daniel Cates and continued to play against Gus Hansen.
In the end, Blom won 1M$ in 24 hours.
The biggest pot ($372,918) was disputed between Blom and Cates and played as follows. (Gus Hansen who was small blind folded)
Cates opened to $1,500 and Blom 3-bet 6h7h at $5,400. Cates call.
Flop 8d9dKc
Blom put $7,200 and Cates call.
Turn: 5h
Isildur1 hits the nuts and bet $17,400. jungleman12 bet back $48,600. Isildur1 decides to call.
River: Qs.
Blom check off-position, Cates put $98,400 and Blom push the rest of his stack in the middle of the table. Cates call and muck.
What do you think Cates called the river with?
