Mysterious SwedeWho is Isildur1?

That question has plagued the poker world since the mysterious Swede burst into the world of high-stakes online cash games, winning and losing millions at a time against some of the best players in the game.

While many have speculated that the online player is the young Viktor Blom, the 19-year-old has never acknowledged publicly that this is the case.

On April 11th, the world will finally be able to put the speculations aside when Isildur1 comes out of the shadows to play on the televised PartyPoker.com Big Game IV at the Les Ambassadeurs club in Mayfair, London. PartyPoker announced the news in a press release on Wednesday.

The cash game will run for 48 hours and feature players such as Luke “FullFlush” Schwartz, Phil Laak, Jennifer Tilly, Isaac Haxton, Neil Channing, and Tony G.

A PartyPoker.com spokesman was careful to point out that this announcement was not some clever joke. In a press release, the spokesman said, “Please note this is not an April fool, Isildur1 has joined the line-up!”

There is always the chance that Isildur1 will come on the show but still conceal his identity with some sort of mask, a joke made popular during the recent PartyPoker Premier League in Las Vegas.

Whatever happens, Isildur1’s potential unveiling will make the PartyPoker.com Big Game IV one of the most anticipated poker events in quite some time.
