wtf, how naive are people.. ?? this guy never was anonymous... whenever you try to deposit or withdraw some 100k on any pokerpage, you have to provide his ID. All this f....ing s**t is marketing. Even we do not know, if high stack poker on FTP is real or just marketing...

I think that Swedish tax department will get his ass now...
I don't think so: not taxation occurs on losses
I've read some info regarding this issue.
According to the Swedish law, if someone plays on a poker site registered outside the EU, he is supposed to pay 30 % of every winning hand (disregarding if you one the session or not). So, according to the Dagens Industri Newspaper, Viktor Blom owes around 1 bln in local currency in taxes. That is around 149 000 000 $.
Our Swedish mobster, Pjot, can tell if any of this is true.
