His real name is Viktor Blom. He lives in Gothenburg Sweden. He move to Gothenburg last year and did buy a apartment there. Before that he did live in in a small town with his mom and dad. he dropped out of school to play poker.

Lets go back couple years.

When he only was 15 years old his older brother Sebastian did learn him to play poker. He started with a friend on Partypoker. He did play only sit& go. He manage to go bankrupt all the time and he did stop playing poker. In DEC 2008 he took all the money he had left about 2000dollar and did but in on bet365 on his new nick "blom90" and manage to go up all the way to 1,9 million dollars in only 3 weeks. From the start everyone wanted do play this new crazy gambler. But after a while he did get some respect. It was only one player he did lose big money to...a danish player called Peter ”Zupp” Jensen. But zupp did not really play against blom90. A Swedish pokerplayer called Robert "gulkines" did. He use zupps poker account and take around 900k dollar. And Blom was nearly broke. But he did put some money in the bank and started do play on "svenska spel" with around 40k kr (about 8000dollar). In the beginning everyone wanted to play him. But his aggressivestyle did made him about 3,6miljon kr.

He took lots of money of 2 Swedish player called "smutsfall " and "Himpan".This in only in 1 month. In Feb 2009 no one wanted to play him so he did return to ipoker and at the same time he started to play in entraction.

On entraction it was one player who had taken his nick. It was Odonkor1 who had take viktor blom nickname on entraction. Blom90 new nick was Zebul_on. He manage to made €10k to over €4million in 4 months. And he took €1,5 millions from the fake blom90 on entraction and did learn him a lesson.

After that no one wanted to play him. When he was playing on ept in April. Some guy did hack his account and manage to win some money from him. But Bet365 did take the money that zupp did win and give it back to Blom. The Danish played did admint that he had cheated against blom90. In Juni he went to Betfair and played there against "gulkines" and manage to win 2m dollar. In Aug he played in wsope with his friend Fredrik "martonas" Andersson. After that he and his buddy did splitt bankrolls and did play on ftp. But they did no success. After that Blom was back on entraction with his new nick. He won about 1,5 million dollar. He made a new account on ftp and called "isildur1". The nick "Isildur" is called from that some years ago he was playing a internet game and isildur1 was he nick there. The rest of story you guys now. Hope this will bring some light to who isildur1 is.

Sorry for my bad English. And please never write Viktors name with C. It is Viktor and not ViCtor. Ty

-A nice little read, nothing new. Some knows everything about him others dont.

Post stories and anything Blom news related in this thread.
May the poker gods be with him so he can return to nosebleed and offer the fans what they deserves.

Just something i found written by someone who knowes him... There is a cool interview in swedish with him but the intersting part 3 is missing( i think, never found it). That part is suppose to be about how he raised from the ashes in nl600 from a 10Kswe/2K$ deposit and all the way to the top.

So according to this he's won minimum 10M$ in the EU sites over the past 4 years. Everybody know he's -2M on old FT and i think over a Million down on stars. I jut find it strange that he would win and then lose back everything, everytime at tilt and stars, and somehow not do this on the EU sites. I dunno.

I dunno. games are not as big as like stars and tilt on europen sites..and lack of good players over there imo..cause there is a huge diff between 2008 and 2012.. now there are lots of very good and tough player on both tilt and stars..so this could be the reason..

IMO it's a combination of these factors why he's consistently lost it all back at Stars/Tilt. Games are tougher, Euro sites are softer, he has spent fortunes learning new games at the highest limits and (esp in 2009/10 at FT) the stakes he played could bust anyone who plays such a high variance style. The single biggest reason I think he didn't maintain his winrate however was that ALL his winnings on the euro sites were won at NLHE. He is the KING of NLHE, the only player to consistently beat Jungleman, yet he chose to switch almost exclusively to PLO and now to limit games. I don't doubt he's a great PLO player now and will improve at the others but his edge in PLO (if and when he has one) isn't huge and his high variance style is a killer, especially at a game with as much variance as PLO. I've noticed he's been putting in the hours at NLHE back at Full Tilt now - I guarantee if he keeps this up you'll see his roll stack up massively.

Good 2 see that indeed.. But because he likes PLO so much it's also a little strange he shifts back 2 NLHE... Is it possible his contract tells him to do so? Hope he'll build a solid roll the coming days to take on durrrr at NLHE as soon as he returns online ! Oh and btw Joytoys... U know why i can't click the list of tables (behind a players name) in livesection (the overview of how much profit made on which table)? Edited 2012-11-08 12:42 by ISIrocks

Only about 5-7 guys only has won that much on fulltilt and none at pokerstars. And those two are the "biggest" sites running, with the most players. And 4 million in only 4 months. The game shoulda been bloody big to win so much so quick. Have to doubt those figures, concidering no-one ever reported huge ringgames at the site.
