Isildur1 Backs Out of PartyPoker Big Game IV

April 10 2010, PokerNews Staff

With the PartyPoker Big Game IV just a day away, the unknown Swede known only as "Isildur1" has allegedly pulled out of the lineup. According to a blog by Tony G, Isildur1 sent a text message saying “Sry for not coming, take care bud.”

Tony G claims that he and Isildur1 had spoke often and that Tony continuously reassured Isildur1 about playing in the Big Game IV. The two agreed to 50/50 deal staking deal. "I was going to fly Isildur1 and three of his friends to London and everything was all set. He mentioned that he didn’t think that the stakes were big enough but we had agreed to make the game much bigger when he came in!" said G.

The entire situation has left Tony G sour on developing a relationship with the high-stakes maniac, and he is washing his hands clean. G claims it was Isildur1 who initially reached out to him, and now that he has let him down, he offers his famous words to the Swede, "On your bike!"

While the anticipation of seeing Isildur1 for the first time is now gone, the Big Game IV will still get underway Sunday, and is still certain to be cant-miss poker.

Makes total sense to accept & suddenly back out because it adds to the mystery. Now Tony G has to take the high road & be nice by just saying (politely) that "... it makes total sense that Isildur1 declined ... fear of Tony G will do that" & say it politely.

This idea seemed a little silly anyway it would be hard for him to stay anonymous and once that goes interest in him will wane pretty fast. The idea of wearing a mask is dumb he might as well stick to the internet where he seems fairly able to make money, before he donks it off anyway.
