Isildur1 is back recording six-figure swings.
Although the newest member of Team PokerStars Pro isn’t winning and losing millions like he once did, the online phenom was in the black about $300,000 in a session of multitabling $25-$50 pot-limit Omaha Thursday on PokerStars.
The unknown Swede played against the likes of nosebleed regulars Scott “urnotindangr” Palmer and Ashton “theASHMAN103” Griffin.
The largest pot of Isildur1’s session occurred when he hit a straight on the turn against Palmer for $73,323.
Here is a look at the hand:
The Scenario:

The Action:
The confrontation started when Isildur1 raised to $225 from under the gun. Palmer was next to act and three-bet to $800. After three folds, Isildur1 made the call. The flop came Q
5 4
, and Isildur1 checked.
Palmer bet $1,150, and Isildur1 raised to $4,350. Palmer called, and the turn brought the 3. Isildur1 bet $7,850, and Palmer called. The 8 landed on the river. Isildur1 bet $23,600, and his opponent called. Isildur1 exposed his straight, and Palmer mucked. Isildur1 raked in the $73,323 pot.
While the action on Thursday was profitable for Isildur1, on Friday he played against Phil “MrSweets28” Galfond at $100-$200 heads-up pot-limit Omaha and ended up giving some of it back.
