Though he’s still struggling to overcome in a battle of poker wits his relentless nemesis Brian Hastings, the Swedish enigma known only as Isildur1 was back again at online casino Full Tilt Poker, racking up the money and using his wealth wisely to multiply his cash holdings. For once this year, it seems like the nameless one might be on a roll, accruing some good luck to go with his slowly increasing bankroll, as fans across the online gambling community slowly come back to watch his game play in awe.

Last weekend was particularly profitable, with Isildur ending the weekend with a cool $845,000 in his pocket. It was a great comeback for the player, who wasn’t looking at a particularly hopeful session when he sat down, landing on the losing side of fellow pro Sami Kelopuro. The two played a number of hands on the $100 / $200 No Limit Hold’Em tables, and Isildur’s risk of upping the ante by doubling the stakes bit him back as he walked away from the face-off down $231,000.

Luckily for him, he wasn’t quite done with the online casino Full Tilt poker for the evening, as he switched games to the $200 / $400 Pot Limit Omaha, and slowly rebuilding his account balance with more than 4,000 hands played over the next day. The effort was more than worth it as he increased his bankroll to a cool $550,456, most of which was courtesy of another well recognized poker player Dang. It was enough encouragement, as he pushed to the $300 / $600 tables, meeting up with Alexander Kostritsyn and winning an easy $284,000.

On a roll, so they say, Isildur1 moved again to a six-max table, playing 521 hands but losing $344,000 in the process. Kelopuro showed his face once again, giving Isilidur the opportunity to win back $220,000 of his earlier losses before opening up the game to include Ilari Sahamies. Those particular 500 hands added yet another $200K to his pocket, bringing the enigmatic powerhouse up to a solid $845,000 profit by the end of his weekend.
