1. The Big One for One Drop at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas in 2012 and 2014 attracted the biggest names in poker and the results of those two tournaments still dominates the all-time money list. This year, though, there's a twist; no professionals are allowed to play.
2. Small blind David 'Bullitos' Van der Weele three-bet to $5,880 and Mikael 'ChaoRen160' Thuritz folded his big blind. Fjutekk called to see a flop in a $12,800 pot. Van der Weele bet $8,400 on.

It was October 2009 when out of nowhere the account 'Isildur1' appeared on Full Tilt Poker. He started to play the highest stakes and took on the biggest names in poker. It was going to be the biggest upswing the poker world had ever seen. Playing against the likes of Patrik Antonius, Phil Ivey, and Tom Dwan, sometimes all at once, a new sensation was born and railbirds were pulling all-nighters to witness the action.

What followed was probably the biggest downswing in online poker history, as his opponents started to figure him out and the 'Isildur1' account started to lose big. It wasn't the first time someone had run up a bankroll and it certainly wasn't the first time someone crashed and burned. But where others were never to be seen again after such a rollercoaster, it was 'Isildur1' battling back to get in the black again. He lost some and he won some but remained a fixture at the highest stakes for the months to come.

By the time PokerStars signed him nearing the end of 2010, most people had already figured out it was the relatively unknown Swede Viktor Blom behind the account. The reveal at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure that year wasn't a total shocker, but still, the world had finally a face to go with their idolized nickname. The fact he wasn't into doing interviews only grew his status as a legend of the online world.

The above top three of biggest winners and losers in online poker for 2016 and the top 10 biggest winners and losers online for the last. “We are playing €100/€200 PLO in the high stakes section of the poker room. Two players limp in EP, I make it 1100 with KhKcJd9d in MP, Juha Helppi calls in the CO, Bullitos calls after him in the SB, and an older Spanish guy pots it to 5900 from the BB. The sizing might be a tiny bit off, but not by more than 300.

What followed has been well documented. We've written plenty of articles on Viktor 'Isildur1' Blom and all the crazy swings he endured during his poker career. To this day, though, we never combined his play on both PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker and fully grasped how big the swings have actually been. Time to change that! We plotted the graph for all of his play on the highest stakes at PokerStars and Full Tilt, with the data courtesy of HighStakesDB. Data on his swings on the untracked sites as amongst others 'blom90', were unfortunately not available.

After an excellent 2015, things have gone mostly downhill in 2016 so far. Blom has lost hundreds of thousands of dollars and is currently ranked as the biggest losing player with a deficit of $636,951. The last two weeks have been good, though, and a small upswing can be seen in the above graph. Let's see if he can hold up this streak and turn things around for the year, as 'Isildur1' at the highest stakes is still the pinnacle for all online railbirds!

Online High-Stakes Action the Last 3 Weeks

The last time we did an update was on Nov. 17. Since then, 'kkopghy' has won almost $400,000, more than double than that of anyone else. Viktor 'Isildur1' Blom, who was for a long time this year's biggest losing player, again ended up in the black. Here's the latest online.

The 2016 Leaderboard

Not a whole lot has changed since we last checked up on the biggest winning and losing players of the year. In the winning section, a swap of places has taken place with Andres 'Educa-p0ker' Artinano now back in second while Thuritz takes the bronze.

Both lost, but Thuritz dropped more than Artinano to drop down a spot. The biggest winner of the year remains Ben 'Sauce123' Sulsky.

'candela2005' lost a bit but remains in third spot. Both 'bodamos' and Alex 'Kanu7' Millar did not record any hands the past three weeks.
