The countdown to 2010 has began and I’m still wandering where the year has gone, but 2009 was a good year for poker.

Isildur1 was on a winning streak for about a month in November peaking to more than 5 million dollars profit from playing high stakes poker games on Full Tilt Poker against Tom “durrrr” Dwan, Brian Townsend and David Benyamine. Around the 24th November his bankroll was falling into the negative.

He then started to make a recovery until he played Brian Hastings and lost more than four million dollars playing $500/$1,000 Pot Limit Omaha which is the most amount of money ever won playing poker online in one session. This put Isildur1’s bankroll to more than two million dollars in the red till he played Durrrr and Brian Townsend where he recover by winning more than one and a half million dollars against his opponents.

Isildur1’s bankroll then took a huge fall down to $-2,139,064 after playing Brian Townsend and Brian Hastings on Tuesday. Will Isildur1 recover from this huge loss or will he just disappear unnamed without anyone knowing who he is.

Once again the record books need to be updated as the previous record for the largest online poker pot was once again smashed by a monster pot of $1,356,946.50.
This time around the hand included well known poker pro Patrik Antonius and unknown Swede “Isildur1“, prior to the hand both players were stacked at a high stakes $500/$1000 Pot Limit Omaha game at Full Tilt with Isildur1 having about $678k and Antonius approximately $1.26 million.

Preflop the pot was already $160,000 as both players raised and reraised each other.

All the recent action and large pot activity at FullTilt by the unknown Isildur1 begs the question to be asked, just who is Isildur1?
