In connection with Blom 100, a recent promotion at Full Tilt Poker where 100 lucky players got to play heads-up against Viktor "Isildur1" Blom (Blom ended up winning 62 mathes [38 players received $1,000 each]), the Swedish Full Tilt Pro answered questions from Full Tilt's followers on Twitter.

Hmm like all poker players, he is evasive about his bankroll and anything that comes to money, I dont know any player that are good that brag about it, those that brag are either loser or plain lying.
Sick player, he really should learn how to drive a car lol. And sick HU games, with 2k he got 3m in 3weeks lol. Thats just sick and he does not use huds. :S

oooh oooh i wanna ask some questions
Mr. Blom can u answer please:
- what makes you reraise dudes who reraise your raise when you hold 26o - how does it feel to win millions, then to lose back those millions and start grinding back from $0.10 360 people sng's - what ya think, is salami enlargement operation really so popular in Sweden as is snickers in GB?
I didn't knew about this, i really liked to ask him some questions also. I like how he is still acting like a regular guy and don't let the fame etc. come to his head like you see with a lot of poker profs.

I've been watching him play in a Full Tilt Heads Up tournament ongoing from week to week on TV here in the last few weeks...! I can tell you that when folks are sitting at the table with him,...they are NERVOUS and WORRIED that he's gonna pull a fast one on them and knock them out.
He plays a very unpredictable and out right CRAZY style of play that just intimidates the best of them.... Seems to me like him and Tom Dwan are in an unspoken competition to be King of The Millionaire Poker Donks....

If you read this interview the conclusion is that Viktor tries to be very discreet about his life and also i do not find anything strange that he avoids answers about money...
I mean you could ask any top pro that earns/loses millions and be sure that he will never tell in public what is his bankroll.

Not exactly an explosive set of answers but then he's not a loud type of person, I kinda like that. I like how 50% of the questions were retarded 'Tell me about your money etc etc...'. so many better questions that could have been asked that he could have answered. Oh well.

Charlotte Bobcats vs Miami Heat
Under 196,5 points at odds 1.89
Miami will head into this game without Ray Allen and D Wade tho very good players(superstars) and I believe that they wont be as near as efficient without them.Last 4 of 5 matches Charlotte played the complete number of points was under this margin and only one that went over this margin was the one with only one point over.
