It was a good weekend for Swedish online poker ace Viktor "Isildur1" Blom while playing the virtual nosebleed tables at PokerStars and Full Tilt where he raked in $950,000 in profits within 72 hours.
The High Stakes Data Base shows that Blom was up $241,000 on Friday, up to $554,000 on Saturday and topped out at $950,000 on Sunday.
The majority of the wins were taken from high stakes player Ravenswood13 on the $20/$400 Pot Limit Omaha tables.
Blom didn't start out so well as the Dutch pro managed to take him $400,000 in less than an hour but Blom was able to recover all that and more.
He also faced "WIthColor" at the $200/$400 PLO tables and banked $252,000.
The overall stats show that Blom is down $326,000 at PokerStars since 2010 and $4.74 million down at Full Tilt since 2009.

This guy is incredible. I would commit a suicide after losing USD 400,000 in less than an hour, but he won back his money. He is probably a very wealthy man if he can ignore the loss of this huge sum of money. He has won a lot of money by playing poker so I respect him.

Wow, almost 1 million of profits, Viktor Isildur1 Blom really is amazing, however, Viktor proved that really have nerves of steel, with a loss about $ 400,000 in the first few hours of play, he managed to remain calm and mostly play well and finish his session with a fantastic profit, should not be easy to face a variance...
