Isildur1's High-Stakes Poker Journey: March 2013

Viktor Blom, known as Isildur1, faced issues with people not allowing him to gamble normally during his poker sessions. He played 6-max tables in 2-7 with triple draw $1,500/3,000, where Phil Galfond, patpat, Patrick Antonius, and Sebastian Sabich were already playing.

After a successful start, Isildur1 moved to PLO $200/400, where Ben Sulsky joined him. Isildur1 played against Hac 'trex313' Dang in PLO with a cap and against Scott Sever in 2-7. He then played PLO $250/500 without a cap, where Ben Sulsky tried to convince him to play lower stakes.

Isildur1 won $2,449,544 over 13,185 hands from March 1-5, despite starting with a bankroll of only $2,500. He won over $1,200,000 in a single day on March 10, playing 2-7, FLO8, and PLO. In one of his most impressive performances, Isildur1 won over $720,000 against Ben Tollerene in PLO $400/800 over 374 hands.
