What happened to Isildur1-broke, retired, dethroned

January 10, 2010

Isildur1 recently received his first major and career threatening defeat to Brian Hastings. Brian, took a sickening $4.2 million from Isuldur1 in a mere 5hours. Hastings gave credit for his success to Townsend,who works as an instructor at the CardRunners poker training site.

After further investigation, it was found out that Hastings and Townsend analyzed over 50 000 hands played by Isildur1, thus ensuring that they built a solid strategy to counter attack the mystery Swede and take his millions.

Now that Isildur1 is broke, there is much speculation over his return. A recent report suggested that one of poker’s favorites sons, TonyG, will be funding Isuldur1’s return to the nose bleed high stakes tables. Only time will tell if Isuldur1 will return to high stakes action. In the mean time we can only wait in anticipation to see classic poker action like that again.

Poker is a family of card games that share betting rules and usually hand rankings. Poker games differ in the way the cards are dealt, formation of hands, whether the high or low hand wins the pot , limits on bets and how many rounds of betting are allowed. The action always proceeds to the left. Each player in turn must either match the maximum previous bet or fold, losing the amount bet so far and all further interest in the hand. A player who matches a bet may also raise, increasing the bet. The betting round ends when all players have either matched the last bet or folded. If all but one player fold on any round, the remaining player collects the pot without showing his hand. If more than one player remains in contention after the final betting round, the hands are shown and the winning hand takes the pot.
