Welcome to our high stakes report! The action is still going strong, with a lot of players that are considered to be the top of the poker food chain on the both lists!

SanIker is the biggest winner of last week, with 3955 hands played and $359,206 in profit. Last Tuesday SanIker (together with another player Kagome Kagome) destroyed their opposition on Triple Draw tables. In the single day, SanIker made around $150k. Patrik "FinddaGrind" Antonius is doing well yet again, placing on second spot on our list this week, being $262,722 richer. Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond is yet another well-known person on the top of our list as he takes third with $188,202 on plus. Gus Hansen, who just lost a little over a million dollars last week, made it to the top winners list, taking fourth spot with $145,718 (which still doesn't even come close to make up for his loses). It's worth a mention that Gus played the most hands from all the players that made it to the winners list, 6839. MrSweets28 is our last player in the top 5 (he scored a $145,147 week), while Isildur1, jungleman12, mrw8419, HelicopterBen82 and BROCKLESNARR fill up the list.

Phil "Polarizing" Ivey is still struggling with multiple lawsuits against him (in most cases he's being accused of cheating in casino games) and it looks like he can't really put focus on the games. Ivey really stands out this week: he lost 5 times more then second player on the list ($563,749 against $100,602 lost from Crazy Elior). punting-peddler is third, but he lost considerably less then our second spot as well - he finished the week just $39,283 poorer, which shouldn't hurt any nosebleed bankrolled player. BROGSKi takes fourth with -$28,894 in 1185 hands and bbvisbadforme lost $24,008 playing just 60 hands. Check out our list below for the rest of the biggest losers!

OMG NO WAY!?!?!?!?! (sarcasm)

I would guess you just don't combine players winnings/losses, it's by account.

its winnings by userID so summing them up doesn't make sense

How does summing them up make no sense ?!? It's not like its a private info or something, they all know its the same guy

one reason could be that not all players' aliases are equally well-known, so keeping track solely by SN is an easier way to remain consistent.

in galfond's case both SN's are common knowledge, but there could be a situation where someone has an alternate SN that's a) unknown b) little-known or rumored c) fairly well-known but not as much as galfond's.

considering there's been situations in the past where a screenname has been commonly accepted as belonging to someone, only to turn out it didn't belong to that person, keeping everything separate seems like the simplest/best method. i don't think the reason has anything to do with "outing" anyone

Man, I just think Gus Hansen is going to get involved with the worst kind of Chinese triad people for a loan and he won't be able to pay them back so he'll end up dead. Guy is such a swingy degen.

TheHuHu4 coming soon :)

there is no swing; he has foreseen the rapture and must rid himself of all ill gotten gains to obtain the good will of his God

I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time
