Isildur1 keeps amazing the poker world with the astonishing feats he is achieving against some of the top players in the world. Less than 48 hours ago he was on the losing side of the largest online pot, which he lost to the Full Tilt Pro Patrik Antonius. In his most recent session Isildur1 crushed Tom “durrrr” Dwan again for around $650K and after that he took on the challenge to play against Phil Ivey. Ivey and Antonius have been the only two players who have been able to defeat Isildur1, but things went differently this time around.
Lst time the two played, Ivey dominated Isildur1 and had him down over a million dollars, but Isildur1 was able to turn things around by winning the second biggest pt on online poker history. Isildur showed some aggression pre-flop and the board ran Js-Ks-Jd. The turn brought a 10d and some big raises as well, as a total of 354K was added to the pot and the card that followed the betting round was a 5d and the raises raged until there was around $700K added to the to the pot. At the show down Isildur1 showed Kd-4d-5h-Kc and Ivey mucked his hand. Isildur1 was victorious over $1.1 million which recuperated much of his losses against Ivey.
