Viktor Blom Wins $2.7 Million In August

Things can change quickly in the game of poker. A great example on that is Viktor "isildur1" Blom's incredible winning streak in the past 2 weeks or so. In the beginning of August the 24-year-old Swede's overall result on PokerStars was about -$1 million ---  today it is almost +$1.8 million! In total, he's up 2.7 million dollars playing on the world's largest poker site in the month of August!

If you love high stakes cash games, then we highly recommend that you keep an eye out for Viktor Blom playing on PokerStars' nosebleed tables. Blom has, for example, played several $200-$300k PLO pots as of late against a player nicknamed "WithColor". Expect nothing but great action in the coming weeks!

Imagine winning this amount of money in a month. This is the equivalent of winning the lottery for most people but, as we all know, he will probably lose the same amount next month!!

Viktor is great player, I read a lot of articles about him, and I watched him couple of times playing high stakes poker, usualy PLO and 2-7... I read online that he started with 200$ as a kid, and just in 1 year he reached amazing sums that were around 1 million... He knows how to win a lot, but he also knows how to lose a lot...

I am imagining that what would I feel if I'd be down 1 million and already feeling sick of it so there's that.

I think Victor Blom is one of these players that just don't see poker chips as real money.A lot of these poker kids start so young they have no concept of money or risk which makes them very dangerous players.

Yeah he will keep winning a lot of money, he is really good and he plays the nose bleed stakes so yeah his money will always be on the high and he is one of my best player and always look for him when he play and see how he make those high risk moves without huds and all, anyway good for him, hope he keeps that up and keep making the headlines, anyway peace out have fun at the tables and good luck cheers peace out guys!

Viktor Blom is an amazing aggressive player .. and make unexpected plays
and that is what made him special
these are the reasons it is so easy for him to make lot of money in small period of time
but it is a sword with two edges , he can lose same amount quickly
he did it before playing at full-tilt .. it was painful for him losing millions
but now he is back winning

Maybe one day I'll know the feeling of winning one million but one thing for sure, I'll never know the one of losing it...

If you make a million playing poker it is because you are playing very high blinds structure than after the wining the losing could come very fast.

However if you are talking about winning a million in lottery than it is something else and for sure i would not go play high stakes poker with it. Big Smile Big Smile

i don't know, maybe i'm old time... but i better buy myself a villa in the bahamas and spend remaining of my days bathing in the sun, drinking cocktails, inspecting melons at the beach, playing some freerolls or $0.02 sng's rather than risking losing a couple of million a month... guess i'm too old for this.

If I could've afford a bahamas villa retirement plan then I'd say fcuk gambling in the minute when my plain arrives to the island...
This Viktor guy here must not love the Sun that much as me.
