"As part of a PokerStars promotion, Isilldur1 has agreed to play heads up against freeroll winner "OU THE NICK" in a 100-hand $10,000 match."


From the PokerStars Blog

Why? Its probably going to be DN isn't it? Realistically he is their flagship guy.

I believe Veldhuis mentioned it on a pokerroad interview he did earlier today, On the other hand, Stars would probably promote this line-up more if it were to be true.

Team PokerStars Pro Isildur1's identity will be revealed today at 7pm at the PCA. The legendary online phenom will be playing fellow Team Pro Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier in a 100-hand $25/$50 heads-up match. Each player will bring $10k to the table. The match will take place in the tournament area - exact location to be confirmed nearer the time.

Once the Isildur1 v Elky match is over,
Isildur1 will play "OU THE NICK" - a German SuperNova PCA qualifier
who is being staked $10k by PokerStars to play Isildur1 in a 100-hand heads-up match after winning a special online promotion. OU THE NICK, who bested a 424-player field to win the promotion, is already freerolling his way to the Bahamas after winning a satellite run for the year's top 150 PokerStars Tournament Leader Board finishers.

Nope.

Imagine if viktor loses both matches :/
Could easily happen over so few hands but won't look good for him.

Hope he absolutely crushes elky, pokerstars have hyped isil to the teeth and he's such a shy person so i really hope he just crushes.

Isil playing Blom HU at the unveiling table would have been epic.

Everyone posting the "i told you so's" only to find out the other guy is actually isildur.

thanks for all the info

100 hands is nothing, even beginners realize that and you dont. wouldnt be any shame if he loses both.

They didn't think to advertise this on the news pop-up??


You would think they would hype it up if he was going to revel his true identity.
my guess is banana suit

A lot of people here will probably make video's, Cardplayer, PokerNews and Pokerlistings. If I think these guys aren't showing enough, I will make my own video .

vids of isildur1 are appreciated

I know a secret just leaked right now by a source... isildur1 is not Blom! He isn't even popular at all, nobody knows his name, a total newcummer.

I don't realize that?

Are you ******ed? If i didn't realize that then why did i make the point that it's so few hands that he could easily lose?

Reading that hard for you?

And ofc there's no shame lol, i just think since it's his big unveiling it would be ****ing great if he crushed......

Get me?




Probably not but hey, i tried.

lol... can't wait for the video of this.

hehe i levelled you pretty hard, i knew somebody with low confidence would react like this and most here live up to that . So i had fun reading your upset post

If Ilsidur is not Blom I will be suprised

A real money shot even...

So OU THE NICK is having a good 2011...

Hope they've got the kleenex handy at the press conference.

Yeah i have intimacy issues aswell...... please don't touch me

isildur's sitting at 2 tables on PS ... what time is it in bahamas ?

B+
