Sahamies and Hastings squared off at noon on Saturday, playing 453 hands of $300/$600 Pot-Limit Omaha.
As is typically the case with Sahamies, the session was flush with action, seeing multiple pots worth over $200k.
The largest pot of the match, at $426,198, went to Sahamies after he turned two pair to beat Hastings’ aces.
The session came to a close with Sahamies up $565k.
Up next for the Finn was 506 hands of $200/$400 Cap-PLO where he took down another $129,768. It wasn’t until he sat with the unknown Italian player luckexpress10 did Sahamies have his first loss on the weekend.
After just 64 hands of $200/$400 No-Limit Hold’em he dumped exactly $192k to luckexpress10, then continued his run-bad losing another $120,000 in just 13 hands of $300/$600 PLO.
After a small $24k win at the Cap-PLO tables, Sahamies sat with another CardRunners pro heads-up, this time taking on the white-hot Cole South.
Sahamies played 606 hands of heads-up $300/$600 PLO against South, making over $773k in the process.
In addition to losing $773k to Sahamies, South dropped an additional $126k heads-up with Tom “durrrr” Dwan. Thanks to a couple of $100k winning sessions earlier in the weekend South kept his total losses down to $646,255.
Despite starting the year as a pro, Dwan has yet to find his stride for 2010, putting himself down another $110,230 this past weekend.
Meanwhile, after South left his seats across from Sahamies, Phil Ivey sat down to play just 42 hands (his only weekend session), earning $87k.
In the end, however, Sahamies still finished the weekend up $1,091,202.
