This previous week, two of the most important PLO on-line money professionals within the sport, Lithuanian Grazvydas Kontautas and Dirk ‘Venividi1993’ Gerritse of the Netherlands, obtained right into a little bit of a heated trade.
It all began again on Oct. 11 within the High Stakes Thread, when Grazvydas dismissed Venividi’s best heads-up accomplishment as operating up a $1 million stack towards Phil Galfond. This all got here whereas he was exhibiting off a pair of spectacular graphs highlighting his multi-million greenback PLO income.

“Venividi ain’t no heavyweight,” he mentioned.
On Saturday, he was requested to offer his PLO six-max energy scores, to which he listed himself at no. 2 behind ‘omaha4rollz.’ Venividi was listed all the best way down at no. 12. He unfold the trash discuss round with somewhat added spice, sarcastically asking if he needed to make a top-50 checklist in order that Fernando ‘JNandez’ Habegger might be included.
After prodding Venividi a bit extra, publicly questioning why he’s returned to poker after 10xing his cash for hundreds of thousands of {dollars} within the crypto market, Grazvydas laid down the gauntlet, correctly difficult him to a chess match, a no-limit match, and an influence slap match.
But maybe it was all discuss? Early this Tuesday, Finnish PLO celebrity Eelis Parssinen got here out of nowhere with a screenshot, proving that Grazvydas had rejected an invite to play a three-or-four-handed match with him and Venividi, even providing him “a few bb/100 handicap.”
This, in fact, set the discussion board on fireplace.
In response, Grazvydas confirmed off his personal receipts claiming that Parssinen rejected a heads-up problem the place he was providing 3:1 odds. His $600,000 to Parssinen’s $200,000 on 50,000 fingers of no-limit. The Finnish professional has but to reply however we will guarantee you that this three-way beef is much from over.
