The Return of Isildur1 to High Stakes Online Poker
Isildur1 is back in nosebleed action and players are queuing up to get some of it themselves.
This week Isildur1 took on Cole South and played $300/$600 pot-limit Omaha. They played a total of 1,124 hands on six tables simultaneously. It ended fairly evenly with South ending up $82,000.
Next Ilari Sahamies from Finland, better known as Ziigmund, lost a cool $1,000,000 to Isildur1 in a very exciting heads up game. It began with $300/$600 pot-limit Omaha which they played for 699 hands in which Sahamies ended up down by $710,000. They then stepped things up a bit to $500/$1,000, but Isildur1 continued to roll it in and took another $330,000 off the Finn.
There were some huge pots too. The largest was $423,000 and another three were over $200,000. In the $423,000 pot Isildur1 got the top set on the flop beating the Aces of Sahamies.
Next in line to play with Isildur1 was Brian Hastings and as usual Hastings was in the ascendancy. He won yet another $500,000 from Isildur1 which meant that his total winnings from Isildur1 were $3,730,000. The largest post of the session was $309,000 which went to Hastings.
Other big action included Tom Dwan winning $1,300,000 last Saturday. $1,000,000 of it was from PixKim. He also won $300,000 from Di Dang. Tom Dwan has now more or less made back the $5,500,000 he lost to Isildur1 last December.
Dwan playing with Patrik Antonius and PixKim enjoyed an interesting pot. They were playing Omaha. Dwan had two aces and two tens, Antonius had two kings and two fours, and PixKin had two aces, a king and a four. It is not surprising the sparks began to fly. The pot got to $423,419 which was won by Dwan with a full house.
