The high stakes online tables were like a ghost town this week, as many usual trip to Las Vegas to participate in the World Series of Poker 2010. We saw Tom “durrr” Dwan, Patrik, Antonius, Phil Ivey, David Oppenheim, and Jared “harrington25″ Bleznick $ 50,000 to participate in the Players Championship, which this year mutated a HORSE event to mixed eight games. Some of those who fast as Brian Townsend lost a little hands played online and saw that “Isildur1″ was back at it again playing heads up several tables with the likes of Di “Urindanger” Dang, David Benefield and “URnotINdanger2.”
Closed Townsend $ 142K
After staying out of the WSOP Players Championship, Brian Townsend sat down to play online and was able to capture $ 142,000. First, Townsend was charged to “christinhoch” on Pot Limit Omaha $ 100 / 200 for $ 103,000, then rose to $ 300/600 to get $ 39,000 of Patrick Antonius.
The biggest jackpot of the day reached six figures – $ 113,000, and was against “christinhoch.” Townsend opened for $ 600 on the button and “christinhoch” paid from the big blind. With the flop of (K-Clubs) (5-Spades) (3-Hearts), “christinhoch” he check-raised by $ 4,000 to bet Townsend for $ 1,000, to which Townsend was re-raise to $ 13,200. “Christinhoch” paid to see the turn brought a 9-Clubs) (. Christinhoch happened, Townsend bet $ 27,600 and “christinhoch” moved all in for $ 42,890.
Townsend was paid and he had (a-Clubs-Hearts) (10) (5-Clubs) (4-Diamonds), for a couple of 5 and a project internal staircase and color. Meanwhile, “christinhoch” had (a-Spades) (a) (j-Hearts-Spades-Clubs) (3) for a pair of aces. Townsend hit the staircase when he appeared on (2-Hearts) in the river and took the pot.

On Monday morning began with “URnotINdanger2″ in No Limit Hold’em $ 50/100, which lost $ 74,000, before they agreed to pass $ 50 / 100 Pot Limit Omaha. At that meeting, “Isildur1″ got a win of $ 126,000, after 3000 hands.

The largest jackpot was $ 36,000, well short of the boats millionaires playing a few months ago. Dang opened for $ 300 from the button with (a-Hearts) (K-Spades) (Q-Hearts) (J-Spades), and “Isildur1″ did a three-bet to $ 900 with (7-Diamonds) (4-Diamonds (3-Hearts) (2-Hearts)), and Dang reraised to $ 2,700.
