PokerStars are smart. 50/100 it's great stakes for Isildur if they are giving him cash to play... He can't loose to much in few hours so they can easy control it

NO there is no side bets, well none reported. The thing I like is that this is 1 session..so no dragging it out or quitting on a bad run. I can only assume that Haxton choose the limits, and $50/$100 is the lowest limits alloud in this contest. I predict the winner will be Pokerstars.

pokerstars are smart by signing him up as its bringing so much/many more players to the site and even players that used to play on f/tilt are now playing pokerstars also so its win-win for them and i think f/tilt made a blunder by not signing isildur1 up in 1st place and maybe regretting it now as e1 is wanting to see this mystery swede in action no matter who he is and its all win-win for p/stars!

I wonder where Isildur1 get his money from. He is already in red at Full Tilt and now he joins Team Pokerstars Pro. Well then, It is time for me to lose millions then I may join Team Pokerstars Pro.
