some pretty lol answers, yeah right he didnt put any money online before he was 18, and he picked PS because they have all kind of games, even 1cent! =)
i assume he skipped a lot of school in his teenage years, think he even mentioned it in a interview before, thus lacking english (during his FTP-period he could barely make easy sentences in the chat box, guess it has improved a little since moving to London). Why also his swedish is lacking i dunno, but i think he was really lucky to find poker where he's obvious some kind of natural borned genius because i think he would have failed pretty hard in a normal life career, would probably be working at Mcdonalds or something if it wasnt for poker.
Stating he's the best is cocky, but probably somewhat true when it comes to NL. You can never measure exacly who is no1 but he is def among the top 5, and def the most fearless, and i believe even jungleman avoided him at times over at FTP. I truly wish jungleman would return to PS and get some epicness going. If his statement also included PLO then i believe he's delusional, in PLO he has just proved that he can make the most sick swings imo, not that he can beat anyone of the best over a long period of time.

His swedish is pretty bad as well (from a swedish perspective) - does not seem very eloquent at all.

this made me chuckle |

I think that statement was pretty good. The person that disagrees is gonna have to play him at the sickest online stakes to prove him wrong and I'm sure that's what Isi wants. |

Until they play him he can keep saying he is the best and no one can argue against that. |
Wobbly got him to fold to a 3b!! |

Wow interview says line is -135 for Ike? Seems high. Probably a lot of 2+2ers fed up with the Isildur craze and are betting against him. |

You people misjudge how hard it is to speak to a camera in a foreign language (even your own), being pre-recorded makes it way easier but its quite hard to be in the spotlight for people who arent naturally very outgoing |

Yeah, you definitely have a point here. But at this stage Isildur has been in the spotlight for a while. It's not only his way of speaking, it applies to writing as well. |
