    Isildur leaves Team Pokerstars

    Actually, Team Pokerstars left him.

    They didn't renew his contract, but both claim the decision was "mutual".

    http://www.pokernews.com/news/2012/0...-pro-13232.htm

    There is some speculation that this was done in order to sign him with Full Tilt (now owned by Pokerstars), since his big run occurred there, not Stars.

    This makes perfect sense. I just heard somewhere that he feels like he runs like shit on Stars, its a no brainer for him to sign with Full Tilt.

    I will be very surprised if he doesn't sign with FTP. I wonder if the high stakes @ FTP will be what it used to.

    Ha, as soon as I saw that I knew for 100% Viktor Blom was isildur1. Before that I was like 90% certain anyways though from reading the theories and shit.

    Isuldur won $200,000 yesterday in an 11 hour session on PS against EireAbu. EireAbu is this years biggest winner. Isuldur isn't afraid to play anyone obv. He always picks the best spots.

    He has been playing tons more at Poker Stars since they parted ways. His graph must be insane from all his swings. He won a million this weekend. He is even playing 1k/2k limit against omaha/8 specialists.

    Phil Galfond was complaining in the chat to Sauce123(I think) that Isuldur is running him ragged.

    Quite frankly, I don't give a shit.

    But I bet that PokerStars would have kept him if he was female, looked like Liv Boeree, with big tits and ass.

    The kid back playing HU in the SCOOP Main Event on Stars vs. Noah "Exclusive" Boeken whom was also a former Stars Pro.

    They still getting over $1 mil for first for this but probably would be double that if Americans could play.

    Edit: Isildur wins.

    Another nice score for Isildur, if anyone still cares about online poker.

    Interesting screen shot.

    In addition to Isildur's $1 million, Noah (Exclusive) Boeken finished 2nd. Haven't thought about that guy for awhile. We used to talk shit to each other all the time about 10 years ago, during the early days of Pokerstars. This was before he was well known, and before anyone even knew my real name. I met him in person in St. Kitts in 2005 and we got along ever since.

    ZeeJustin (Justin Bonomo) finished 17th. No word if he also finished somewhere 3rd-16th.

    raidalot, who finished 19th, has been one of the most vocal anti-Lock activists on 2+2.
