I still can't believe what I just witnessed. Every time I think I've seen it all from Isi, he tops himself. It's both exhilarating and exhausting to watch. I made the analogy in 2009 that it was like watching a trapeze artist operate without a net, and I believe that holds true more than ever.

There is more chance of night not following day than there is of the people's degen hanging onto the money he has won.

Thing is though, it would appear that there is at moment some type of system in place where Isil has to transfer part of his profits to someone after each session. I'm assuming that whoever keeps the funds also makes sure that he cant degen them all away so easily.

I.e if his total roll drops below something he can no longer play higher than 25/50.

For what ? Railing 25/50 used to be boring, full of nits and small pots. Isilidur changed the way 25/50 will be seen forever.

My eyes hurt just because i left the rail at -450k.

Felt the need to catch up w/reading the feb thread since... Now i can finally take some rest. Extraordinary match, both of them made it that way.

Thanks to ALL the HH posters, u made the missed part easy to catch up. Thanks for your time and effort, keep it up, it's really appreciated.

I stopped railing when he only had the 6K left because I couldn't keep watching him throw it all away...little did I know I would miss one of the greatest online comebacks. Well played Viktor!

EV is a tricky thing there was a hand a day or two ago for example where it was a 3 bet pot isil flopped top set and urnot flopped 2nd set on quite a dry board, now you know all the money is going in no matter what on that flop but urnot decided to slow play his set to get isil to bluff off money not knowing he was behind and ended up turning quads on the turn.

Obviously isil 3 barreld as he rivered the nut full house and ended up losing around 50k but got no EV on a HM graph when in reality it was he who ran really bad in that pot.

of course the EV graph doesn't tell the whole story, but it is ALWAYS (ALWAYS) closer to reality (skill) than a winnings graph.

get it?

Yeah cause he has been running soooo good, winning every plo session since he has software backup right?
