Poker Stars hosts an array of high stakes cash table match-ups (video)

During the last couple of weeks one of the largest online poker sites, Poker Stars saw some big winners and big losers at the cash tables.

Ever since the fall of Full Tilt Poker, the place where all the big poker shots take their high stakes online action, seems to be Poker Stars. The reasons are quite simple – Poker Stars is now stronger than ever and remains one of the best online poker sites on the planet.

We can note Rafi Amit, a live tournament poker ace, who overcame a long list of PLO opponents and finished last week with a whopping profit of $592,000. Currently he is up $1.29 million in total.

Online poker whale from Finland, Ilari Sahamies, is up $736,000 for this year alone, and this figure could be quite different, had he not suffered a $200K loss on weekend.

The best earner so far is the Swedish pro, Andreas “Skjervoy” Torbergsen, with $1.4 million profits in 2011 so far.

Last week’s top earners all came out above $200K. The list consists of:

• Amit: +$592K
• Axelf82: +$247K
• Socutiesf: +$210K
• Sahamies: +$202K
• Jedlicka: +$200K
