IVEY STOPS ISILDUR1 IN HIS TRACKS (Update)
27 November 2009
More excitement on the virtual nosebleed
tables
The incredible run of Swedish mystery player Isildur1 on
the virtual high stakes tables at Full Tilt Poker
received an expensive setback Thursday night when a cool
and controlled Phil Ivey stopped him in his tracks,
scoring a massive $1.1 million win over the session.
It was the second time in a week that Ivey handed
Isildur1 a high-priced lesson, having earlier taken him
for almost $900 000 according to statistics from the
independent site MarketPulse.
Ivey has proved to
be one of the few who have triumphed over the Swedish
phenom, who has been savaging some of the top Internet
players around for literally millions of dollars since
September, attracting a huge amount of interest across
the online poker community in the process.
Playing $500/$1 000 Pot-Limit Omaha and No-Limit Hold'em
the duo tangled with short breaks over the 3 hour
current session, with Ivey ending the night up $1.1
million earned through pots that went as high as $354
000.
Still looking for action, Isildur1 also got
it on again with Patrik Antonius in a longer running
session that saw at least two gigantic pots not far
short of $800 000 at risk - probably the second and
third highest in online poker history (the highest ever
is currently $878 959). Antonius ended the evening up
$100 000, with Isildur1 retiring for the night probably
smarting from an overall loss of $1.6 million over the
session.
