No one, however, expected it to be won by reputed high-stakes fish patatino - with a pair of deuces.

Another epic session at Full Tilt's marquee $500/$1,000 No-Limit Hold'em table last night, and another dozen or so wow-inducing hands to report - two of which certainly belong among the sickest high-stakes pots of all time.

First and foremost, of course, is the pot now officially the biggest ever won online, at $610k, scooped by renowned "fish" patatino.

The victim: Hac "trex313" Dang, who had the odds to call patatino's crazy $300k flop shove with his combo draw, but saw patatino's queen-high hand connect with the turn and fade his final outs.

The second, and perhaps the difference between trex playing poker ever again or receding into a jabbering shell in a rocking chair, came just a half hour later when the poker gods evened the score and he hit a miraculous queen on the river to top durrrr's set of jacks and get $512k back.

All in all, two of the sickest hands of all time - and just a part of the deeeep-stacked action last night and this morning over at Full Tilt.
