In 2020, the record for largest No-Limit Hold'em online cash game pot was broken twice in one week on GGPoker. Wiktor Malinowski broke a record previously held by Tom Dwan when he won an $842,000 pot against Michael Addamo, before Ali Imsirovic beat that with a new record of almost $975k.

Phil Ivey, Viktor Blom, and Patrik Antonius have all been involved in seven-figure cash game pots, but the previous record of $1,356,947 looks to have been surpassed.

The flop J?J?2? gave Tony G a flush draw, but there was to be no further help for either player, as the board completed 2?4?. Both players chopped the pot.

Tony G and Tsoukernik Back in the Fray

This isn't the first time Tsoukernik has been involved in a notable online poker hand. Back in July 2020, he was involved in a five-way all in on the GGPoker cash game tables. He held J?10? but his four opponents held aces, kings, queens and jacks, with queens flopping a set to win a six-figure pot.

Tony G meanwhile is enjoying a successful return to poker, after winning two events in 2021 at the Super High Roller Series Europe. He resigned from the Lithuanian parliament early last year citing dissatisfaction with a member of the Labor Party.
