The past week was a bit slow in the online high-stakes world, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t some interesting sessions. Doug “WCGRider” Polk and unknown Denoking kept up their nosebleed no-limit hold’em action with some intense pots at $100-$200.
The largest hand of their battles was a $131,226 cooler.
Polk had the button and made it $440. Denoking three-bet to $1,800. Polk four-bet to $5,400, and Denoking five-bet to $13,800. Polk called and the flop came:
K

8
Denoking fired $7,800. Polk called.
The 2 landed on the turn.
Denoking led out $14,400, and Polk once again called.
The river was the K.
Denoking shoved for nearly $30,000 and was instantly called. Their cards:
Polk: A K
Denoking: A A
Despite the hand, Polk ended up being a slight loser for the week.
