September 1st, 2010 Posted in HighStakesNews.com

It was great to see some good action on Full Tilt Poker last month after the quiet summer. Although only Phil Ivey and Daniel “jungleman12″ Cates managed to get over million dollar winnings.

Patrik Antonius and Phil Ivey, the poker pals

Ivey won a staggering 2,06 million dollars and Cates eventually earned $1,1 million. Ivey’s performance made people talk that if he had some side bet going on as he was giving a lot of action.

Apparently this wasn’t the case at all:

deprimiert: hey do u have any probbets goin on? ur grinding all the day
Phil Ivey: nope just feel like playing
Phil Ivey: gg play later

deprimiert: haha cool
deprimiert: gg

Other big winners were Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond (+$904k), Tom “durrrr” Dwan (+$737k) and Jared “harrington25″ Bleznick (+$730k). Dwan made good profit even though he had a bad start in his challenge against Daniel Cates.

Once again the biggest losses were made by Gus Hansen, who lost almost 2,9 million dollars. Patrik Antonius lost $815k and his great month was over within few sessions.
