The leading player of the month for August 2011 is undoubtedly Isildur1. True to himself, his month has enjoyed swing. At the end of July 2011, Isildur1 was losing on PokerStars almost $ 700,000. At a time in me, he was winner of 844,000, in other words, he won 1, $5M on the tables of Hold'em without limits, but especially on PLO HU tables with blinds $ 25 and $ 50. There reperdu much since, but he finished about the same month with profits of $ 898.075 in 32,000 hands.
Another outstanding performance, that of Skjervøy. The Norwegian won $767K in August last in only 28,000 hands. Even if the game of Omaha is known for his legendary swing, this seems not to affect the performance of Andreas 'Skjervøy' Torbergsen.
'Skjervøy' is the biggest winner of 2011 at Pokerstars.com with $ 1.955.533 in profits on 77.554 hands.
Despite its day of the Devil (against Viktor Blom in the role of the devil), Ilari Sahamies is winner of $500K for the month. With respect to the other winners, no surprise, always the same: Phil "MrSweets28" Galfond, Rui "PepperoniF" CAD and Ronny Kaiser.
In the biggest losers include Sauce123 which is used to destroy everything in its path and our friend from PokerCollectif, Moirhums (or Moirhums33) with losses of more than 330 K$.
