The mysterious new Team PokerStars online phenom Isildur1 (real identity unknown) will take on the likes of Isaac “philivey2694” Haxton in his first ever SuperStar Showdown.
PokerStars describes Haxton as a “formidable online and live opponent with experience at the very highest cash game levels online”.
Haxton was the runner up at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event in 2007 for a cash out of $861,789. His career best was at the WSOP 40th Anniversary $40,000 event in 2009 where he took home just shy of $1.2 million.
Isildur1 has already started to make waves at PokerStars, taking the online poker room for a few hundred thousand dollars within two days of his announced signing, then losing it all two days later.
