Izildur1 is the 5th biggest looser? We have read some news about the good games he have been playing, must have been two weeks ago or more, I suppose. This guys play a lot one against each other, I remember of reading about sessions with Blom with patpatman and also with 1il|1il|1il|. But it’s funny to see how 1il|1il|1il| is playing a lot more than all the others, look at the number of sessions and hands he played and compare with others.

He was down like 2M or something this year, i think the good results people talk about him are refering to him getting close to the break even mark :\ I think he has been winning for the last weeks tbh, not sure tho. He's big downswing started when he started mixing up PLO with 2-7 lowball and 1k/2k and 8-game tables. Having fun @the highest levels can be pretty tough i guess

Could you imagine sitting at a PC and playing nearly 25,000 hands? This is a feat in itself. I mean 24,000+ hands in 407 sessions in one week. Hell, there's only10,080 minutes in a week. How can one accomplish this? Wow that's averaging over two hands per minute.

If you turn each of his sessions with 6 to 8 tables open 10 hours per day (600 minutes), obviously it keeps being extreme work, but this pros place of work must be something looked like this scenario that I just described. Perhaps not that much tables, if there aren’t that much players to go for this buy-ins, but it must be close to this.

I also agree with you, if you start mixing a bunch of different games to try to turn it interesting (I can assume that Blom can see anything funny in playing a single poker game, no matter what it is, and this is a way to concentrate), things will have to run bad somewhere, if not in all.

haha yeah nice name, never heard of him until now, maybe i just dont follow poker players enough, anyway hope he keeps crushing, would be nice for a change to see new faces winning rather than the old one like Bloom!!
