There are some quite interesting rumors circulating in different forums at the moment. One of them is that Viktor Blom, whose sponsor deal with PokerStars is about to expire and also hasn't been seen playing on the site for quite some time, has been active lately under a fake nick.

I can't imagine some pro like Izildur doing something like this. I know it happened before with other pros, but this isnt something nice for a pro to do, and Izildur don't want to create stains on his carreer with atitudes like this. If its illegal, why would such a good pro do something like this?
As i'm typing this message here both players are online on pokerstars and play different games, plus the location of the first player is sweden and isildur is in london...
Multi accounting isn't a new scam, and supposed "pros" have been caught doing it in the past.
With that said, I cannot see Isildur, or any other pokerstar pro doing this. I have to believe that Pokerstars management would be heavy handed should any of their stars were caught doing shady practices especially in light of recent events over the last year.

I don't get why people continue to think that this is possible?
The last days both players were online playing at different table but in the same time... Isildur's location is still UK and that other guy is in Sweden.

i'm not saying they are but it's possible that he's multi-accounting with help of his friends. many pros have admitted of doing the same, so wouldnt be a surprise.
and its kinda suspicious the way he reappeared after ppl said he was playing from another account
Isildur1 ended speculation is not wilhasha saw them playing at the same time 2 wilhasha was playing PLO playing NL5000 and Isildur end this suspense so although it is still rare and appeared wilhasha days after Isildur

2010 ETP Berlin: Victor Blom is sitting at the tournament table in Grand Hyatt Berlin and at the same time Isildur was online at Full Tilt Poker playing 4 tables HU....

why do online poker companies put up with this kind of under handedness, yes we all like to play and beat these people, but surely us little people should know who we are playing against, im sorry but this is not a game of poker and bluff from these stars, its down right thiefed and deseption
