Months after the epic drama surrounding Isildur1, a similar storm is now gathering on the horizon.

Another mysterious Swedish player has been frequenting the high stakes tables at Full Tilt in recent days, most notably tangling with Dan “Jungleman12″ Cates over matches of $25/$50 Pot Limit Omaha. Known as “Lindqvro”, the player took his adversary for a sizable sum of nearly $300,000, playing four games simultaneously.

The first man on everyone suspect list is, of course, the newly camera-friendly Viktor Blom, who just weeks ago revealed himself as the man behind the Isildur1 mask. Now signed with PokerStars, Blom’s notorious style of play has been monitored and emulated by countless others. But the latest, Linqvro, has shown markedly similar tendencies.

Much of the buzz surrounding the newest mystery is centralized at the 2+2 forums. Many of the users there have come to believe that Linqvro, Isildur1, and Blom are in fact one and the same person. Most have cited the play style, nationality, and massive bankroll as compelling evidence to their claim. Others, however, have noticed subtle differences. Among these are the table options, bet sizing, and methods of expression used in the chat box.

Blom himself responded to the rumors on 2+2:

“Hi, it’s not me that guy. I only play on PokerStars and I get every game I want there.”

Linqvro, to date, has made only the one appearance. He vanished as quickly as he appeared, and has not returned to the tables. Stay tuned for more info on this mysterious high stakes player.
