Another Half a Million to Isildur1

Pete - Tuesday, May 5, 2015, Written by- Tuesday, May 5, 2015, High stakes reports

Viktor "Isildur1" Blom continued his fine run of form yesterda, winning a combined $560k across the highstakes tables of PokerStars and Full Tilt.

The Swedish Superstar put in over 3,000 hands yesterday at the 2-7 Triple Draw, FLO8, and PLO tables. His biggest wins came from PokerStars Limit Omaha Hi/Lo tables, where he played for 6.5 hours from late morning to late afternoon, winning at four of the five tables he played (and only losing $528 at the one table he didn't profit from), for a total haul of $341.4k. During his time at the FLO8 tables he played against Phil "RaiseOnce" Ivey, Kyle "KPR16" Ray, NoelHayes, Alexander "joiso" Kostritsyn, Ravenswood13, Patrik "Fake Love888" Antonius, and GeorgeDanzer.

However, Blom actually spent way more time playing at the highstakes tables over at Full Tilt where he had an extremely swingy day. He started off with a couple of early morning 2-7 TD matches against thecortster where he won a little over $22k. The main event, however, was an epic 9.5 hour heads-up $1k/$2k 2-7 TD match against German pro Kagome Kagome.

The first couple of hours were very nip and tuck, before Isildur1 went on an extended upswing which took him to around +$180k at the four hour mark. Kagome Kagome hit back with a +$240 comeback over the next 3.5 hours to put himself around $50k in the black. However, Isildur1 had to the last laugh, running up $265k in the final two hours, mostly at the original table but winning $73k from a second table the pair opened over the last 90 minutes. In total, Blom walked away with a $215k profit from the matches.

Next, Isildur1 took to the $250/$500 PLO tables where he took on Doorbread and Ben "Bttech86" Tollerene in separate heads-up matches.

In total, Isildur1 played for 8 hours against Doorbread, holding the advantage for much of the first 3/4 of the match. However, as the match wore on Doorbread started to get the better of his opponent, who had by now been playing for around 20 hours non-stop. In the matches which started before midnight, Doorbread ran out a $103.5k winnner. However, he really pressed his advantage in the matches which began after midnight, and tomorrows results will show him up $222k if things remain as they currently stand. Despite this big loss, Isildur1 still took down the biggest pots of the day:

Isildur1 flops an open ended straight draw which completes on the river and he is able to extract good value from his opponent to take down this $144k pot

Sick cooler for Doorbread as both player flop Full Houses on a 2 2 K flop with Doorbread holding K2 and Isildur1 KK for top Full House. Inevitably all the money goes in and Isildur1 walks away with this $133.6k pot

Once again Isildur1 flops the nuts with top set and gets paid off on the river in this $120k pot

Isildur1 had a little more success against Bttech86, winning $85k from a 30 minute two-table session. In total, Isildur1 logged a $217.5 win yesterday and is still slightly in profit at Full Tilt since the start of play yesterday.

Other than Isildur1 and Doorbread, the other big winner from yesterday's games was Phil "RaiseOnce" Ivey, who ended up with a $186.7k profit after a long day at PokerStars FLO8 tables. Most of his profit came from an insanely long session at $1k/$2k table Abetti II, where he won $149.8k after an astonishing 17 hours at the table, much of which was played heads-up against Kyle "KPR16" Ray.
