Most people would be pretty upset losing $50,000 in a poker game. For someone like Viktor “Isildur1” Blom (pictured), though, the $50,000 he lost when Bertrand ElkY Grospellier swept him in the PokerStars/Full Tilt heads-up challenge at EPT London was but a flesh wound. Blom promptly got back into his comfort zone at the high-stakes cash game tables and won an amazing $1,308,481 on Sunday.

His day started in the wee hours of the morning, as Blom was still playing a session that had carried over from Saturday night. According to the report from HighStakesDB, Blom began Sunday in the red, losing $160,000 at the Fixed Limit Omaha/8 tables, much of that sum to Kyle “KPR16” Ray. He turned that around, though, taking a short break and then winning $300,000 from Ray before getting some sleep.

When Blom resumed play later that morning, he had a quick $100,000 losing session against “Kagome Kagome” in 2-7 Triple Draw before getting waxed by Grospellier in the aforementioned challenge. He then lost some and won some playing 2-7 Triple Draw and Fixed Limit Omaha/8 before it was time to kick it into high gear

At the $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha tables, Blom won about $22,000. He hammered Ray and Gus Hansen at $2,000/$4,000 Fixed Limit Omaha/8 to the tune of almost $200,000. At the same time, he tried 2-7 Triple Draw again, this go-around taking Alex “Alexonmoon” Luneau, Sebastien “Seb86” Sabic, and Rui Cao for $100,000.

The fireworks of the day came against Ben Bttech86 Tollerene (pictured) in Pot Limit Omaha. The two started out at $250/$500, but switched to two tables of $400/$800 deep-stacked with antes after one hand at Blom’s suggestion.

According to HighStakesDB, Tollerene started out ahead, but soon lost a $216,416 pot when he was all-in for about $100,000 holding A-K-Q-J on a 2-T-K board, while Blom had the nut flush draw and a pair. The flush came to fruition and Tollerene had to reload. He got it back on the second table when he turned a straight against Blom’s flopped set.

It was Blom who had to reload later on that second table. After raising on every street, the board showed 8-Q-2-A on the turn and both men risked all of their chips (Tollerene had Blom covered). Blom had flopped a set of deuces, but Tollerene had turned a set of aces, enough to give him a $244,734 pot.

It was all Blom from there.

In the biggest pot of the day, the hand never even reached showdown. Blom raised pre-flop from the button to $2,700, Tollerene three-bet to $8,400, and Blom called, bringing a flop of 6h-4s-As. Tollerene bet $13,860 and Blom called, taking them to the Ad on the turn. Once again, we saw a bet from Tollerene ($35,568) and a call from Blom.

When the 4c was dealt on the river, Tollerene bet $92,476.80, only to see Blom go all-in for his remaining $137,060.70. Although he only needed to put $44,733.90 more into a pot that had swelled to almost $345,000, Tollerene folded, possibly having missed a draw. Blom had bet his way to a $300,549 pot.

Tollerene also had the misfortune of losing the second largest pot of the day. The two players built it up to $150,000 pre-flop and got the rest of their money in after the 8d-8h-Th flop, Tollerene with Ad-Ac-2h-2d and Blom with Jd-Qh-Kh-Ts. The Jh on the river gave Blom a flush and left Tollerene searching for answers. All told, Blom won $725,000 from his rival.

For the cherry on top of this Sunday, Blom went on to win $100,000 in Triple Draw and in what would have to be one of the best hourly rates in history, won another $125,000 in eight minutes against Ray in Fixed Limit Omaha/8. He finally called it a day with a $1.3 million profit.
