Isildur1 2010 WSOPE - Exclusive Poker Footage of Viktor Blom

Early in the morning of the £10,000 WSOPE main event I managed to track the young and as then 'unknown' player Viktor Blom. He was splashing around in a few pots and I managed to get this footage before turning the camera off due to receiving his death stare at the end!

Note also the 2 players pointing and gesturing at me as I recorded this footage. The one on the right is Ronald Lee who finished 3rd out of 346 for £376,829. The one on the left is Alex Keating who finished 26th for £26,400.

Isildur1 finished 16th for £33,582.

Viktor Blom (born September 26, 1990) is a Swedish high stakes online poker player, best known by the online poker name Isildur1. His rise to fame drew considerable attention around the poker world in late 2009, taking part in all ten of the largest pots in online poker history. In December 2010, it was announced that then-anonymous Isildur1 had joined Team PokerStars Pro. Blom's identity was revealed by PokerStars on January 8, 2011, at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. Blom parted ways with PokerStars in August 2012 and was quickly signed-up by Full Tilt Poker on October 15, 2012 along with rival high stakes player Tom Dwan. Isildur1 has played against all the greats online including Phil Ivey, Patrik Antonius, Jungleman, Durrrr and Zigmund.
