Online Poker -- Isildur1 Beats Dwan, Sahamies, and Hastings For $830,000Isildur1 Now Up $1.6 Million in Last Two Days |

For the second day in a row, mystery player Isildur1 could be found at the high-stakes tables on Full Tilt Poker. On Monday, he battled and defeated Justin “ZeeJustin” Bonomo and others for roughly $730,000. This time, he stepped up in limits from $200-$400 to $300-$600 and came away with another $830,000.
Isildur1’s cast of opponents also changed, as he got a chance to get some revenge against his nemesis Brian Hastings, (pictured left) who won approximately $4.2 million off the Swede in December. On Tuesday night, Isildur1 came out on top, taking about $450,000 off the young college student.
The two decided on six tables of pot-limit Omaha action, but Hastings failed to win two key hands which saw pots of $274,000 and $255,000 go Isildur1’s way. On the first hand, Isildur1 found himself all in preflop holding connectors against Hastings and his pocket kings. The river gave Hastings top set, but it also gave Isildur1 the winning straight.
Isildur1 also stepped down a bit in limits to face off against Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies. In just over 1,100 hands, Isildur1 was able to bank a $132,000 session, making his day even more profitable.
The other key player in Tuesday’s action-packed evening was Tom “durrrr” Dwan (pictured right), who has started off the year on fire, taking a huge lead in the Durrrr Challenge against Patrik Antonius and generally winning at every poker variation. However, against his poker kryptonite, Isildur1, it was just the same old story.
In fact, things got a little heated in the chat box after Isildur1 took a $255,000 pot off of Dwan in pot-limit Omaha and wanted to change the game to no-limit hold’em.

It’s no secret that the Swede is having trouble stirring up action at the high-stakes no-limit hold’em tables, but he seems content with his current situation at the pot-limit Omaha games, where he is up nearly $1.6 million in the last two days.
