Isildur1 came from nowhere and crushed the most successful high stakes player (at that time), Tom "durrrr" Dwan. Isildur1 won about 5 million dollars in no time from "durrrr" who had to ask his dear friend Ziigmund for a buddy transfer a couple of times. It's mostly thanks to the crazy heads-up sessions against "durrrr" that the unknown Swede became one the most talked about persons in the world of poker.
It only took Isildur1 two and a half week until he had won more than $6 million dollars. At this point, many thought that he would be the new king of high stakes and that he was here to stay. However, it didn't take long before Isildur1 started playing pros he stood no chance against - Ziigmund, Phil Ivey Patrik Antonius and Brian Townsend. All of these players have completely crushed Isildur1 and taken about $2 million each from him.
Isildur1 has now played well over 130,000 hands since he started showing up at Full Tilt poker. He has gone from $6 million plus to minus $1.3 million in just 6 weeks time. Some people think that Isildur1 could have been a big winner if he avoided playing Pot Limit Omaha and didn't play so long sessions without a break, when others say that he's too young and inexperienced and that it was just a matter of time before he lost everything and disappeared from the high stakes scene.
