Team PokerStars sponsored pro Viktor ‘Islidur1′ Blom solidified his PokerStars SuperStars Showdown record to 3-1 after sending off Eugene Katchalov for over $100,000 on Sunday evening. It is good to gain some foreknowledge about what you are getting yourself into, UB Review will be a great help.
The two battled it out heads-up over 2,500 hands of $50/$100 Pot Limit Omaha and NLHE on the virtual felt and the Swede sensation dominated to book his third successive Showdown victory. UB.com is a very interesting website that contains all kind of great information.
Blom took down the first huge pot of the session after Katchalov moved all of his chips into the middle with top pair. Blom had his opponent covered with trip sixes to get the $20,300 pot.
The 20 year-old had opened up a $34,100 lead at the mid-point but Katchalov put a dent in that upswing with a runner, runner flush and two pair. Viktor Blom re-established a good advantage following the biggest hand of the match. ‘Isildur1’ continued to augment his advantage during the final stages and was thankful for a rivered set when Katchalov had five bet all-in with pocket jacks.
Blom wrapped up the game in the black by $111,750. Those figures make it his biggest victory by some margin.
