The action really exploded on Full Tilt Poker on Monday, with up to 9 tables of $200/$400 PLO running simultaneously till long into Tuesday. It seemed like nearly all of the big names gathered together starting with a table that consisted of Gus Hansen, Tom "durrrr" Dwan, Di "Urindanger" Dang, Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies, Brian Townsend, Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond, Rafi "howsitfeellike" Amit ja KObyTAPOUT. Later players like David Benyamine, Richard Ashby, Sami "LarsLuzak" Kelopuro, Chau Giang, John Juanda, Alexander "PostflopAction" Kostritsin, Patrik Antonius, Hac "trex313" Dang, Brian "tsarrast" Rast, Cole South, and Ashton "theASHMAN103" Griffin joined the proceedings.

Naturally Tom "durrrr" Dwan was everywhere, and at some point he was seen multitabling 9 tables of $200/$400 PLO at once - totally insane! What's even more insane, he was the biggest winner of this marathon session with a profit of $847,000. Another unusual feature about these sessions was that close friends Dwan, Galfond and the Dang brothers were not shying away from each other for once (the Dangs did not play at the same tables).

Ilari didn't stay at the tables for long, playing only 408 hands (compared to durrrr's 3,270) and raking in a modest profit of $45,000. Sami played 1,646 hands but had to settle for a loss of -$38,000.

The biggest pot of these sessions went to Gus Hansen, though, after he decided to not care about the odds and just gamble in 3-way action with Dwan and John Juanda. He was rewarded with $459,000 and some kind words from durrrr.
