Doug “WCGRider” Polk had just come off crushing Ben “Sauce1234” Sulsky for a massive six-figure sum in their heads-up challenge when he played the biggest pot of his life. The hand happened on Saturday at $400-$800 against Viktor “Isildur1” Blom.

Polk had the button and raised to $2,400. Blom three-bet to $8,800. Polk four-bet to $21,600 and Blom called. The flop fell 10 5 2 .

Blom checked, and Polk fired $17,600.

The Swede wasn’t interested in check-raising a moderate amount. He decided to shove his entire stack of $271,900 into the middle, which put his opponent all-in.

Polk called for his remaining stack of around $223,000.

The hands were tabled and Blom showed pocket tens for top set, but Polk had the A K .

According to the hold’em odds calculator, Polk’s hand holds up about 65 percent of the time.

The turn and river were run just once, as it came Q A to secure the hand for Polk. He raked in the $490,096 pot. He told Card Player the hand was “standard.”

The hand was the fourth largest on the year so far, and the second biggest no-limit hold’em hand in 2013. In June, unknown Denoking raked in a $498,028 pot with pocket aces in a six-handed game. His/her opponent held A-K and all the money went in preflop.

Despite Polk’s win in the aforementioned hand, Blom managed to beat him for a seven-figure sum in the session, according to tracking data from HighstakesDB.

Blom is now up $3.6 million on the year, while Polk is in the black $480,000.
