Isildur1 leaving pokerstars soon official? Now official
Ive recently heard from a reliable source that viktor blom is leaving pokerstars apparently it all came to a head when pokerstars allowed brian stinger88 hastings and brian aba20 townsend to relocate and start sitting on same tables as isildur1 when pokerstars wouldnt revoke there accounts blom withdrew all his funds and pulled out of all the remaining wcoop tourneys hence no main event show and he is using his own funds at present wsope tourneys.
He has agreed to wear the badge as still part of deal and will play 1 more showdown prob against kid poker as was part of contract but he will then run out his contract as was only 1 year deal and will expire on december 17th...
hope this solves whereabouts folks
btw some1 asked about his fbook page here it is

MOD EDIT:
Pokerstars has now confirmed that Isildur1 will no longer continue as a sponsored Pokerstars pro:

Oh wow. I didn't think he'd quit because of that.
Maybe if they had signed them it would be undertandable...

RE: Isildur1 leaving pokerstars soon official? Now official
Im sure Blom feels cheated of 6 mils(?) if i could remember correctly, and atleast i would be very mad becouse it was realy realy bad angel shooting. You may argue about my point of view, tho this is my opinion whetever arguments you come with.
I go with Isildur1 on this.

RE: Isildur1 leaving pokerstars soon official? Now official
not this again. it's not a fact. Townsend was reprimanded. Hastings was never punished by FT, and they never said he broke any rules or terms of service. They may have been angle shooting in a sense, but no one put a gun to isildur's head and made him play for 30 hours in a row, or when he couldn't see straight. Hastings ran really well, and isildur uber monkey tilted. that is all.
Also, I don't see anything on that FB page from VB confirming this is the case. Can anyone point to a reliable source for this information?

RE: Isildur1 leaving pokerstars soon official? Now official
So he'll never play online again. why? it's simple. What poker site will ban Hastings and Townsend ? I think he should ask PokerStars to add some new Isildur1 tables and then ban Townsend and Hastings to play at those tables. Also he should ask Stars to create higher stakes HU tables. Then he still can play against other regulars, win millions and all without hastings and townsend annoying him with their presences.

"pokerstars allowed brian stinger88 hastings and brian aba20 townsend to relocate and start sitting on same tables"
Pokerstars didn't allow them to relocate ... and why would pokerstars stop them from playing there. They've both had accounts there forever and never been found to have done anything wrong by pokerstars. As long as they livesomewhere where it's legal, they can play like anyone else. This whole thing smacks of total BS to me.

RE: Isildur1 leaving pokerstars soon official? Now official
doubt that he is leaving due to hastings! He has played hastings before Black Friday and he didn't seem to be annoyed and even if he was annoyed, why didn't he leave pokerstars back then???
