Isildur1 claims another million dollar victim

Ilari 'Ziigmund' Sahamies gets rocked.

Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies has been trying to get Isildur1 into a heads up match for the last month. Last night he finally got his shot.

The matchup between Ziigmund and Isildur1 started brewing after the second day of the Isildur1 versus Tom "durrrr" Dwan battle, with Isildur1 asking for help getting into contact with durrrr and telling Ziigmund an Omaha match between the two would have to wait.

Although the two players crossed paths on various high-stakes table across Full Tilt, they had never sat for a lengthy heads-up session until last night.

As you would imagine, the $500/$1,000 No-Limit Hold'em match was a landslide of massive pots.

In fact, the top 25 pots alone add up to almost $10 million wagered.

After 2,217 hands, the Scandinavian battle came to a head with Isildur1 proving his mettle once more, beating Sahamies out of $1 million.

This latest million dollar win puts Isildur1 back to almost $4 million in profits on the year, as Sahamies name is added to the growing list of world class players to be absolutely destroyed by the still unknown Swede.

At this point, Isildur1 has proven to be far more of a formidable opponent than anyone gave him credit for when he first showed up on the scene this past September.

One of the only regular high-stakes players left who hasn't suffered a million dollar loss to Isildur1 is poker god Phil Ivey, who actually beat the Swede out of $800k two days ago.
