Online Poker Action – D’Auteuil Week’s Biggest Winner

The
online poker action intensified last week as the waves created by the November Nine slowly but surely subsided. High stakes players turned their attention to the online tables yet again, and Phil D’Auteuil was among them too. D’Auteuil took full advantage of the flare-up and finished the week as the biggest winner, with a profit of $414,357, which he scored over 47 sessions, totaling about 5.9k hands.
That haul took D’Auteuil’s profits for this year over the $1.3 million mark. There’s only one player who won more money at PokerStars than he did: Rafi Amit, with about $1.8 million to his name thus far.
D’Auteuil wasn’t the only one to have logged a profit last week. Peter Chan got 55 sessions under his belt, over which he managed to take down $377,261. “P0krparty¡,” won more than $229k too. Ville Wahlbeck made the winners’ circle too, shooting past the red line by about $210k.
Of course, when there are winners, there have to be losers as well. Rui Cao was the one who made the top of the losers’ list with around $194k of his bankroll gone over the week. Brian Hastings and Rafi Amit both dropped around $125k, while Jens Kyllonen lost $112k.
Romain Arnaud was the biggest winner of the previous week. Over last week, he gave most of those profits right back: he lost $117k, over 14 sessions totaling 2,000 hands.
Martin Bradstreet strung together a pretty impressive run last week too. He played 11 sessions at the $50/$100 PLO and the $25/$50 6-max PLO tables, of which he finished 8 with a profit. Doncarignano was the one responsible for the single biggest pot Bradstreet took down.
GARFIELD25 had a good week too: he managed to erase all the debt he’d accumulated through the year in a single day. Peter Chan, the man behind the moniker, won $485k at the $50/$100 PLO tables, making all his woes forgotten.
