Blowing Money at the High Stakes Online Casinos Tables
An apparently wealthy and unknown poker player is what everyone in the online
casinos poker industry can talk about lately. The Full Tilt internet poker
gambling site is popular all over the world and is one of the handful of poker
gambling sites that also allows U.S. players to gamble at the poker rooms. That
is how the unknown poker players is able to face off against one of the most
well known online casino and land poker professionals, Phil Ivey. Ivey is a very
frequent poker player at Full Tilt and is known for taking home huge pots and
winning a majority of the site’s high roller tournaments. But the last week’s
player is new to the Full Tilt high stakes tables, and though most speculate he
is an amateur in the online poker industry, he does apparently have a large bank
roll.
The “mystery” player as he is known on the message boards and online casino
poker forums is, at this point, known only by his screen name, “Seda1.” Although
there is no way to fully confirm his identity until he himself discloses the
information, many in the industry who frequent the Full Tilt poker rooms are
heavily rumoring that the mystery player is based out of Beverly Hills,
California – a U.S. player with a large bank roll and a desire to play in the
big leagues despite an evident lack of experience in the online casino poker
industry.
Though the player did win portions of several of the prize pools in the Full
Tilt No-Limit Hold’em, those following the hours of play between Seda1 and Phil
Ivey total the players losses around $600,000. Seda1’s largest pot over the
hours of play was $195,000 – but that was certainly not enough to make up for
the hundreds of thousands that the player had already lost in the online poker
competitions. |
