Soon after PokerStars reported the addition of Isildur1 to PokerStars Team Pro, Isildur1 fans anxiously waited for the mysterious high stakes player to finally return to action. The rail was not disappointed as Isildur1 hit the tables last night in a big way.
The newly appointed Team Pro’s big return came in the for of $25/50 Pot Limit Omaha. The tables filled quickly with big names, such as Sauce123, urnotindanger, kirbynator, $tinger 88 and ChipUniter as players took their shot at the man who has been known to tilt off millions. Isildur1 had other plans, though. Logging a lengthy 14 hour session, Isildur1 crushed his opponents on his way to a $260,000 day.
While the figure itself may not be his biggest, the fact that it was all won at $25/50 makes this an enormous win!
Much is still unknown about the man who took Tom Dwan, arguably the best online poker player in the world today, for $5 million. PokerStars seems content with keeping his identity a mystery. It will be interesting to watch how Isildur1 conducts himself now that he is sponsored by PokerStars. Will he be able to keep himself from tilting off his entire bankroll? One thing is for sure, he will be sure to be the center of attention of high stakes railbirds everywhere.
