Thursday 17th April 2008



From time to time we like to have a look at who’s running hot and who’s not over on some of the major poker rooms. Over here in the Bluff Europe offices we were very happy to hear that Phil 'OMGClayAiken' Galfond has had a very good month indeed…

Galfond is purported to have made over $720,000 profit since the turn of the month – and that’s just playing No Limit Hold’em on Full Tilt Poker. On top of that, he’s started playing in some of the bigger Pot Limit Omaha games, making an extra $184,000 profit on those.

“OMGClayAiken” is one of the biggest winners in the No Limit Hold’em games on the site, not just this month but over the whole year. According to HighStakesDB, he’s up around $1.33 million overall. Other big winners on the site this month include David Benyamine and Markus Golser in the PLO games, while Brian Hastings and “Urindanger” are two of the biggest winners in the Hold’em games this last month.
