Isildur Poker
They say that nowadays poker is a solved game… Well one mystery the poker community is still trying to solve is “Who is Isildur?”
The poker phenom known only as Isildur1 became famous almost instantly by racking up millions of dollars online faster that you can say “bankroll”! Moving up to the highest of nosebleed stakes, Isildur counts among his conquests huge scores against the likes of Patrik Antonius and Tom Dwan. Just as amazingly, he lost millions in just a few sessions to a “triumvirate” of math specialists, most notably Brian Hastings, who used data mining to “figure out his game”. Nonetheless, Isildur is still a force to be reckoned with, and is currently once again on his way up to the higher stakes online
But there’s some good news: The man himself (maybe it’s a woman?) will soon make a public appearance on TV, in PartyPoker’s Big Game IV.
What we know now is that Isildur1 is from Scandanavia and supposedly very young (20 years old).

The latest tweets from @isildur1poker. He's one of the most Googled poker players in the world, but he rarely gives interviews. He's a bit shy but fearless on the tables. Viktor 'Isildur1' Blom is a phenomenon, no doubt about it.
Apparently, Tony G. was instrumental in getting Isildur to “come out and play” in a live televised setting, but rumor has it that the young poker phenom might still wear a mask. Talk about a tight table image! Wonder if he’ll speak or just sign to the dealer that he calls, raises or folds….
Anyhow, the live action takes place next week, with the televised broadcast following soon thereafter. Stay tuned.
