While there has still been plenty of high-stakes cash game action on CoinPoker in recent weeks and months, the days of seven-figure single-day swings appeared to have passed. Until Sunday, that is. That’s when ‘DogeCoinMaximaliste,’ one of the most accomplished pot-limit Omaha cash game players on the planet, loaded up the $500-$1,000 with $200 ante tables against ‘yolof1.’
The two played 5-card PLO until someone broke, and that someone was yolof1. DogeCoinMaximaliste logged off for the day with a $1 million win, and more than $800,000 of that came in this heads-up match. While much of the action was contested in a series of preflop all-in hands, there were a few that saw flop, turn, and river play. DogeCoinMaximaliste profited handsomely in these instances, including one hand worth more than $500,000.
The $500,000 Pot
With $260,000 effective stacks, yolof1 raised to $3,000, DogeCoinMaximaliste raised to $9,000, and yolof1 made it $27,000. DogeCoinMaximaliste responded with a five-bet to $81,000, and that was the price to see the flop.
The flop came down J♠J♣5♦, and DogeCoinMaximaliste continued for $20,592. Yolof1 called, bringing a 9♥ that checked through to the 8♥ river. DogeCoinMaximaliste checked again, and yolof1 jammed for $158,131.
DogeCoinMaximaliste called with A♥A♦7♦7♣6♠ for a backdoor straight. It was good, as yolof1 held A♠Q♥9♣4♠3♥ for jacks and nines. That sent the $519,846 pot to DogeCoinMaximaliste.

Hand Analysis
Yolof1 has a nice hand to open with, a double-suited ace-high holding, and they get three-bet. The four-bet sends the hand off the rails in a hurry, since this isn’t a good candidate for a four-bet. Its lack of connectivity leaves it in rough shape against aces, even though it is double-suited. Furthermore, when a lot of the hand’s value comes from making strong flushes, seeing the flop and leveraging position when deep-stacked is going to be a better option than bloating it and running hot-and-cold equity.
Once the flop comes down paired, helping neither player, DogeCoinMaximaliste goes for a tiny bet. It’s a non-standard play, but their range is heavy on aces, and yolof1 will usually be way ahead or way behind.
Once yolof1 just calls and checks the turn, they should be polar between traps and hands that lose to aces. On a board like J-J-5-9, any card between a 6 and a queen completes possible straights, so giving free cards with even trip jacks is risky.
On the river, yolof1 goes for the jam. Yolof1 has to be careful not to bluff recklessly here, since they’ll have many hands that can’t beat aces. Bluffing them all would be suicidal, but this holding blocks nut straights and full houses with the 9, so it’s fine.
DogeCoinMaximaliste has no blockers to the traps (full houses), making the river call risky. However, if the opponent is overbluffing, this is a no-brainer call. Given the amount of aggression in the match, that doesn’t seem like a stretch, and it worked out for a half-million.
Yolof1 Gambles With a Wrap
Playing just shy of 100-blind stacks, DogeCoinMaximaliste opened to $3,000 and called a three-bet to $9,000.
On the A♥10♣2♦, yolof1 bet $9,200, DogeCoinMaximaliste raised to $23,920, and yolof1 jammed for $89,884.
DogeCoinMaximaliste called, showing A♣10♠9♦5♣4♥ for aces up. Yolof1 had K♥Q♠J♥7♣5♥ for a wrap.
The 2♠ and 7♠ river brought nothing of consequence on the first run. The second run brought a 9♣ and 5♦, also safe for DogeCoinMaximaliste. They scooped a $198,168 pot.

Hand Analysis
Yolof1 makes a too-loose three-bet, as K-Q-J-7-5 is only good to reraise if it’s double-suited without a triple suit. This holding satisfies neither criterion.
The flop brings a wrap for yolof1, and they continue for a bet, since the ace-high boards will favor the three-bettor. However, this hand does have a few things working against it. It doesn’t block any good made hands, and it doesn’t do well facing a raise when out of position.
DogeCoinMaximaliste has a hand that would be a bit iffy to stack off in some scenarios, top two with a little bit of backup (gutshot and backdoor flush). Against a too-loose range, this is a nice hand to stack off.
However, DogeCoinMaximaliste makes a raise small enough that yolof1 can continue with a call. They are getting about 3.5-1 on a call, and getting all in against a hand like two pair with a gutshot that kills some of their outs would be a disaster.
Nonetheless, yolof1 decides to run it against the superior hand, and they are fortunate that all of their outs are live, giving them about 37% equity. The board runs out in DogeCoinMaximaliste’s favor, though, as it tends to do when one has a $1 million day at the tables.
