This past weekend, on the CoinPoker website, celebrity poker player Antanas "Tony G" Guoga defeated an anonymous whale in a high-stakes 1000/2000 game to win a sum slightly over $300,000.
The game was played as a part of the 41 tournaments that make up the Crypto Series of Poker (CSOP), which is offering $1 million in prize money.
Guoga, the creator of CoinPoker, witnessed the high-rolling user nvoskob1986, who had pitted two pairs of Aces and fives against Guoga's two pairs of Aces and Jacks, call the hand.
Although Guoga's winning pot is the biggest TwoPlusTwo has seen this month, it might not stay the highest for very long because the series is scheduled to continue next weekend.
