Without warning, it was indeed Daniel "Jungle Man" Cates and the Finnish Ossi "Monarch" Ketola who found themselves at the same table to play a cash game session during the night from Tuesday to Wednesday last week, on the sidelines of the Onyx Club Super High Roller Series festival in Cyprus.
After winning a first duel against Kayhan Mokri for several million euros, the Norwegian Ossi Ketola decided to face Daniel Cates in a head-to-head match. And one can say the night was long for the Norwegian! The two players battled for nearly 12 hours in front of the cameras and, in the process, shattered the record for the biggest cash game pot streamed live!
After playing a total of six matches that evening, it was finally Daniel Cates who emerged victorious against his opponent, with a staggering balance of + €13,000,000! Note that the largest pot of the night amounted to 7.7 million! The two players had started playing for one million euros, then raised the stakes, ultimately battling in a match worth 6 million euros.
Will Ossi Ketola seek revenge before the end of the festival? To be continued…
