There is speculation going on that Pokerstars will reveal the identity of the new signed pro tonight from the Bahamas during the action at the 2011 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA).

Dont get ur hopes up we have heard before that his identity was gonna be revealed but it wasnt lol, if he is playin there live he will prolly have a mask on like a lucha libre wrestler lol.Originally Posted by floppinthenuts
The identity of Isildur1 was revealed at Day 1a of the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event.
Pokerstars officially announced that Isildur1 is indeed Swedish 20-year-old Viktor Blom.
These are his first words soon after the announcement:
Is it a relief to finally reveal your identity?
I think a lot of people have known for a long time who I really am, so it doesn't make a big difference to me. But when I signed for PokerStars I felt like it was the right time to reveal my identity.
What unique qualities will you bring to Team PokerStars Pro?
I think I am the best online heads-up no-limit hold'em player in the world but I'm looking forward to learning a lot from the other Team Pros and helping them with their games too.
How will this unveiling affect your future action?
I will now be playing lots of EPT events and I really want to focus and win one in 2011. I also think I'll have some great SuperStar Showdown matches at PokerStars now that people know who I really am.
Who do you respect the most on Team PS Pro?
Daniel Negreanu and Johnny Lodden.
What did you do to improve your game?
Nothing -- I just lose a lot and that helps me learn [laughing].
Welcome to Team PokerStars, Viktor Blom.
I think he should of kept his identity a secret (even though most knew who he was already) and showed up at events wearing a mask lol.
Viktor Blom it is. There was rampant speculation that Isildur1 was Blom well before this was made official.
It would've been kind of funny if Isildur1 was really Phil Hellmuth or something.

I recall an interviewer asking Viktor if he was Isildur1... to which his response was "I am not your man, keep looking."
We know now he is capable of bluffing.
