Viktor Blom (Isildur1?) at WSOPE

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

Sweet where can i watch WSOPE?

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

YouTube- [HD]1/5 World Series Of Poker Europe 2009 e03 - episode 3 Main Event !

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.

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

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

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...

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.

i was just gonna make a new thread about this. viktor blom sure plays like isildur, lol. what a blowup.

[x] banned from 2+2 on cc with the sarcasim

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

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...

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.

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!

he played EPT Copenhagen today: apparently ducked all interviews.

Very sad photo, Kinda makes the emo hairdo look really good sitting next to some older guys with quickly thinning hair...
