#1 10th February 2010, 12:38 AM

ESPN began airing the WSOPE main event this week. Viktor Blom was one of the early chipleaders. The man, the myth, the legend:

#3 10th February 2010, 1:16 AM

Isn't he the guy that tilted away 5 million? I would cry for days if that happened to me ='(

#4 10th February 2010, 3:25 AM

lol@ all in bluff with AA on board, with K2....looks like his WSOP didn't go so well...

#5 10th February 2010, 5:41 AM

Even tho he denies he is Isildur, he sure plays like him.

But you'd be smilling for weeks if you knew you had as much potential to win it back as Isildur1 does.

#7 10th February 2010, 6:36 AM

Haha, yes I would. I wish I was as great as durrrr and Zig.. they're are amazing at what they do.

#8 10th February 2010, 6:54 AM

That idiot in the 1st post/video (AA vs. KK) totally gave away his hand. If he stayed down and stayed quiet he would of doubled up but he was such an idiot!

didn really tilt away 5 million..collusion scandal and the money was basically just taken from him by the pros.

#10 10th February 2010, 10:49 AM

Oh, I see.. I've heard something about that. Was it him against Brian Townsend? Was there really collusion involved?

pretty good watch. espn only aired days 1a\1b\2 so far.
Good action with Hellmuth \ Esfandiari.

Shaun Deeb calls the floor on Daniel Negreanu cuz he thinks he's angleshooting. Stringbetting by saying "I'm gonna pound you back" as his raise announcement.

#12 10th February 2010, 3:49 PM

Are these just getting put up on youtube when they come out, or is there a place to see them all?

#13 10th February 2010, 4:21 PM

We've all heard of nits... Blom is a nut.

#14 10th February 2010, 4:42 PM

Wow...I guess he didn't think that the guy had one of the aces...or that he might hit the bdoor flush? lol ....he got up and outta there faster than 4 kids stealing colonel sanders head from kfc...

#15 10th February 2010, 5:45 PM

Hell i would have prob laid down a7 in that spot so the move would have worked vs me.It looked like ak all day to me.

#16 11th February 2010, 10:17 AM

you can see why he lost 4million in a session if his last hand in the WSOPE is anything to go by

#20 16th February 2010, 8:05 AM

I'd like to see more of the hands before that one. He was one of the chip leaders so presumably naked aggression got him there and he thought he could bully him off the hand. Someone decided to look him up...

#21 17th February 2010, 2:06 PM

Strange if he is that good online, as one of the first things I heard about online poker is "you can't make them fold" and I find that to be true.

#22 17th February 2010, 8:04 PM

If anyone's interested, there are over 6 WSOPE vids from days 1 and 2 of 2009 on pokertube now as of last week.
Sorry if this is a repost

Search for 09WSOP's channel. 8 HQ episodes up at the moment, great tourny. Check out PH's blow-up at Esfandiari!

lol.

[ ] collusion is possible in a HU match
[x] I've done the exact same thing with other regs at my stakes as BT did and emailed support to make sure it was ok. As long as we weren't using datamined hands and only used hands we collected ourselves they said it was fine.
[ ] I got punished
[?] If I were a red pro I would have gotten punished with a slap on the wrist to satisfy all the idiots who have to use the exact letter of the law in everything rather than understanding that the rules are to ensure the spirit of the game is followed
