Isildur1 once again went on the rampage at Full Tilt Poker, winning a total of $1.5m and causing jungleman12 and Ziigmund to suffer some heavy losses.
A session of $100/$200 with jungleman12, lasting thousands of hands, left Isildur1 with a $500,000 net profit – his opponent’s entire bankroll. jungleman12: congrats sirjungleman12: are you happy now!Isildur1: tyjungleman12: youve broken mejungleman12: sighIsildur1: :/Isildur1: u get it backjungleman12: loljungleman12: ow After this resounding victory, the Swede went on to take on Brian Townsend, Patrik Antonius and Ziigmund. While Townsend found himself down $1m at first, he eventually came back to win the small sum of $50,000 from Isildur1. Antonius also scored a win – around $350,000 – but his fellow Finn, Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies, did not fare so well as he lost around $2m to the Swede. Interestingly, Isildur1 lost over $850,000 at the $300/$600/$100 tables but made the bulk of his profits at $500/$1,000 – perhaps, when not everyone at the table is playing as loose as him in order to pick up the antes, he does in fact have an edge.
