<img align="right" src=http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/6b0e5.pileofcash.jpg style="margin:5px; border: 2px solid black;">Earlier this week we reported about the big swings and huge pots being played at the highest stakes at Full Tilt Poker. Losing a pot of over $1.3 million dollar and experiencing a downswing of almost 5 million dollar in a week time (after winning almost the same amount the week before), it was Isildur1 who kept all the action going. Some people argued that nobody could take such a beating and that he might be missing in action after that; they were wrong!
The day after losing over $2 million dollars, mainly to Patrik Antonius, Isildur was back playing durrrr and Phil Ivey. Durrrr, who has been the largest contributor to Isildur's bankroll, had yet another tough session against the Swede. Another $655,000 were added to Isildur's bankroll, which means he's up over 5 million against Dwan! After this match, he faces Phil Ivey and manages to win a $1.1 million dollar pot in PLO when he flops a full house. He wins $793k in this session and 2 days later we see him facing Patrik Antonius.
Where it was Antonius who took over 2 million from him earlier, it looked like Isildur1 was almost getting even early on in this session. After 2000 hands, he was $1.7 million ahead! Fortunately for Antonius, the action continued, and within the next 2000 hands they were back to square one. At the end of the session, there is still a close to $700k profit for Isildur1. Highstakesdb.com made a graph of this session of 5090 hands, take a look at the huge swings!

Perhaps the most impressive session was yet to come. This time it was not impressive on the side of the Swede, but it was Brian Townsend who showed his skill. In 1018 hands of heads-up Pot-Limit Omaha over 4 tables, he manages to win over $1.1 million! An insane amount<A name="cutnews"></A>, considering they were "only" playing $200/$400 blinds! This session was far from swingy, everything seemed to have gone Townsend's way, which made him an unreal profit for these stakes. After this beating, some smaller sessions against Benyamine, Ziigmund, Durrrr and Phil Ivey are played to end the day, which leaves Isildur1 with a $944k loss over the day.
Yet, to end this report, the games were back on again today. Durrrr and Isildur1 busted heads again, and again it was Isildur1 going home with the most chips. Him and Ziigmund seem to be the big winners at the moment, with a 1.4 million profit for Ziggy, and $1.2 million for Isildur. Of course durrrr is amongst the big losers today, losing $607k so far, yet also Patrik Antonius is doing really bad, as he had one of the worst days of his carreer. In 1500 hands he lost $1.7 million, which went Isildur's way!
It seems like everything changes every day. First we saw Patrik Antonius winning enormous amounts of money from Isildur, later we saw most of it going back to the Swedish player. The most constant player at the tables seems to be Tom "durrrr" Dwan, as he continues to lose to Isildur1... There's just no certainty in poker, especially when playing high stakes online!
