After Phil Galfond delivered a series of six-figure beatings to "Venividi1993" in their heads-up €100/€200 pot-limit Omaha match on Run It Once Poker, the mystery grinder decided he needed a break.
Just like when Galfond was stuck nearly €1 million, the €600,000 swing in Galfond's favor evidently weighed on Venividi enough to have him request a break and be willing to pay the €3,000 per day penalty. After several days away from the tables, they got back to it for the 29th session of the challenge.
They played a swingy session that saw Galfond rocket up to €160,000 ahead, giving hope he could get the deficit under six figures.
