The hottest poker news of 2009 were mostly about one player, Isildur1 from Sweden. Isildur1 came from nowhere and won almost $6 millions in a couple of weeks and then lost it all + another $1.5 million in just a few days.

A man with a serious gambling addict ... as soon as he get hold of a very small sum of money he HAS to hit the tables and play. He has probably lost all his money and owes a lot of money to other players.

Think hes just messing arond, if it is bloom, and Id guess it is as TonyG raves about him and wants to stack Isildur then I belive he is still playing NL400 on I-poker. Did see 1 hand his Allin JJ VS callers AA.

Im asking myself if he'll be able to build another bankroll (i mean, when you play one time with so much money, its hard to be patient and play on lower limits). HOpe he will !

I just think that Isildur1 shouldn't be playing at FTP high stakes tables, because of the injustice he received there after being cheated on. But looks like to me too that he has an addiction.

think he's just playing at fulltilt to have some fun after losing at some other site. he surely won't care about 400$, and it will take a lot of time for him to rebuild from 5/10

5 / 10 must be a s**t box for him... i rekkon he does not get the same buzz at the lower limits so try's to make up for crap hands by betting silly. Still i dont think it will be long before he either gives up or raises the stakes again. Still good luck to him.
