Isildur1 Takes it on the Chin
The way Isildur1 plays, it almost seems like he doesn’t care. Last week, he was up 2.1 million on his Pot Limit Omaha skills. This week however, his bankroll took a giant $1,790,744 hit, and most of it to the man who took $4.2 million from him last year.
Isildur1 was up $845,000 at the close of the weekend, but then sat down at the table with Brian Hastings. The two have a long history (4.2 mil last year to Hastings; Isildur took some of his 2.1 last week from Hastings), and when they start playing usually a lot of money switches hands. Isildur1 was down $150,000 in the first 1500 hands of $500/$1000 PLO, and over the next 1200 hands Isildur1 dropped $1.6 million to Hastings. But he wasn’t done yet.
Isildur1 sat down with Ilari Sahamies and while initally looking good and wining %65,000 on $200/$400 stakes, when they made the switch to $300/$600 stakes Isildur1′s cards ran cold and he dropped $350,000 to his opponent. At this point Isildur1 dropped down in stakes and played Cole South on the $25/$50 tables, and again was bested. This time for a paltry $30,000 (i’m kind of being sarcastic there…30,000 is what a lot of people live on in a year…that blows my mind.)
With his total losses nearing 2 million, i’m wondering if we’re going to see another hiatus for Isildur1. When he lost his 4.2 million last year, he disappeared from the tables for a while. If he does take a break, i’m sure it wont be for long. The man likes to throw his money around.
