Ziigmund High Stakes Online Poker

 

In the world of high stakes online poker, relative new comer to the high stakes scene, Superbaldas, managed to win close to $190K against one of the most recognizable names related to this type of play, Ziigmund. 

So far this year, Superbaldas is up just shy of one million dollars.

From HighStakesDB.com:

Ziigmund picked an unfortunate spot to 3-bet his marginal holding in this hand, so when the flop came down he was too involved to get away from it. When he hits a little piece of the flop he has enough to get his chips in provided that his opponent didn’t hit a set, which isn’t very likely considering this flop. The only question is whether he should bet out or wait for superbaldas to make a cbet. In most cases, it will not matter, but the way Ziigmund plays the hand now, he has a chance to get superbaldas fold his hand in case the 4-bet was made with something like AKQJ. This time, superbaldas had the suspected Aces, but he wasn’t more than a 3-2 favorite. But as you can see, those odds were more than sufficient this time.

Superbaldas would later flop the top set and trap Ziigmund into bluffing away all his chips.
