Biff Goods 0 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Don't know if anyone started a thread about this yet but seems to be an interesting situation a brewin....Poker News Article on Isildur1 and Tony G Isildur1 Accepts Tony G's Staking Offer for PartyPoker Big Game IVMarch 31, 2010, Matthew ParvisThe world will finally get to cast eyes on the man of international poker mystery, Isildur1; the online poker player who has been the talk of the town for months has accepted Tony G's staking offer and will play against some of the world's best in London for the PartyPoker Big Game IV.PartyPoker's Big Game IV is slated to take place at the Les Ambassadeurs club in Mayfair, London, from April 11 through 13. Isildur1 will sit down in the cash game, which runs for 48 hours straight, to face off against Tony G himself, Luke Schwartz, Phil Laak, Jennifer Tilly, Isaac Haxton and others.A blog from Tony G is expected at some point later today with details, but when initially offered , "The G" not only offered to stake Isildur1 in the game, but also to pay for his flights, hotels and expenses while in town. It's unclear whether Isildur1 will be revealing his identity, or whether he will be wearing a mask or disguise.One thing is clear: an appearance by Isildur1 makes the upcoming PartyPoker Big Game IV one of the most anticipated events in recent memory.

Naked_Cowboy 0 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Sam SimonFYPAlso, how big is this game going to be. 25-50? 200-400? Most of the people listed don't play legitimately high stakes cash games except laak when he super nits it up on HSP once a year. There was a british cash game show a year ago or so that was 25-50 with some of these same players on it and it was painfully boring. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Phil Laak doesn't stake tilly, she has her own money and he's too much of a nit to burn his money staking her. Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Tilly and Laak aren't dating any more? Because the stake I was referring to may not be the stake you are thinking of...And who is Sam Simon? Link to post Share on other sites
