Tom Dwan and Viktor Blom famously battled on Full Tilt Poker back in the fall of 2009. Blom ended up clobbering "durrrr", adding more than $5 million to his bankroll at the expense of Dwan.

Blom went on an incredible run in the fall of 2009, doing battle against the likes of Dwan, Phil Ivey and Patrik Antonius. Blom and Antonius would end up combining to produce the largest cash game pot in the history of online poker, a record that still stands today.

Blom's legendary run on Full Tilt Poker came to an end at the hands of Brian Hastings, but "Isildur1" was able to parlay his heightened status in the poker world into a deal with Pokerstars, and is now one of Full Tilt Poker's "Professionals".
