Online Poker Action - Blom Wins Again
Posted by: Jo Martin - Sat, 2015-10-31 11:31
It's not a secret to anyone that Viktor Blom has been doing extremely well at the nosebleed stakes online poker tables lately, and this past week, he added another massive chunk of change to his profits, profits which had already had him locked as the year's most profitable
online poker cash game player. Not only was the Swede a winner last week, he was the week's biggest winner, having pocketed some $284.3k for which he played 13,384 hands, spread over 82 different sessions. Thus far this year, Blom has some $4.8 million in profits at PokerStars, in an entirely different league of his own.
One won't find the second biggest winner of the year, Jens Kyllonen, complaining either, but his profits of $1.05 million at PokerStars pale in comparison to Blom's haul.
Patrik Antonius had a decent run this week too: he finished some $103.8k above the red line, having played 4,071 hands over 21 sessions.

Wherever there are winners, there have to be losers as well and this week, the losers' camp was headed by Doug Polk, who ended up dropping $174.3k. Ben Sulsky had a tough week too: he dropped some $138.3k.
Most of Blom's profits this week came at the 2-7 Triple Draw tables, where he banked $412k at one point. Needless to say, that haul made him the biggest winner of the day and although later he ended up dropping a lot of that money, he still had enough left over to become the biggest winner of the week yet again. Most of the 2-7 Triple Draw money came from Cort Kibler-Melby and RaulGonzales.
