isildur1 might be the name on everyone’s lips these days, as the unknown players sweeps $6 million off the tables last week (mostly from NL Holdem superstar Tom durrrr Dwan, of the self-named Million Dollar Challenge), but there’s another “old-timer” (comparatively speaking) on everyone’s lips today, and it happens to be another poker pro who lost big to isildur1, that being Patrik Antonius (to the tune of about $1 million).

But Antonius bounced back from that $1 million loss on Full Tilt Poker nicely, taking down the record-breaking largest sized pot in online poker history. And to make the $878,959 pot even sweeter for Antonius, the opponent he won it from was none other than isildur1 himself.

The previously record, appropriately enough, was set by durrrr himself, $723,000 won off Di “Urindanger” Dang in October of 2008.

This time, the game was heads-up Pot Limit Omaha and the table stakes were $500/$1,000. When they sat down at the table, both players started with over $400,000 each.
