News: Viktor Blom speaks out about the day when he lost $5 million

In a new interview with one of Europe's biggest poker magazines, the youngest living poker legend Viktor Blom, from Sweden, speaks out about the day when he lost $5 million to Cole South and Brian Hastings (the biggest loss in his career) and what crossed his mind when it was reveled that South, Hastings and another 3rd player, Brian Townsend, had collaborated and made joint statistics of how he played hands. When Full Tilt found out about cheating they removed Townsend's pro status for 30 days. However, South and Hastings got away with it.

Viktor Blom about the day when he lost $5 million to Cole South and Brian Hastings.

"I think that that they tried to create an advantage, and they are cowards. I was playing against Cole South in a 300/600 game and became really tilted and 3-betted every hand. He was in the lead and suddenly decided to stop playing. I said, "what the hell?" and he apologized and said he must go. Then, just seconds later, Brian Hastings took his seat. They probably sat next to each other. Anyhow, Hastings won $4.5 million against me," Viktor Blom says.

How did it feel to lose 5 million dollars?

Not good, especially when I found out they had collaborated, but I still felt okay and could do other things in life that I appreciate. After some time had passed I didn't think much about it at all.

What's your relationship with money? Does money have a value for you?

It does. But all players have to put their bankroll at risk in order to develop.

He definitely is an online prodigy, but if money of that sort of amount has no meaning to you. Then it must be pretty easy to bet it and be aggressive.

vicerod i don't know exactly what you mean{but i don't know these cockroaches and i don't want to know them,but what i do know is that they are going to get what is coming to them,and with that i mean they have to be very careful when they come online because they are going to get what they deserve and it can take a year or maybe 2 or 3 but they are going to pay for this and you can tell them that,there are people that are much better in this kind of scams and they are going to find out and that is as sure as that the pope is catholic amen!!!!} but i mean the three turds that played this scam{i cant call it anything else}and i don't care who they would have done it to it is lowdown degenerate thing to do to play somebody like that.

and caddyroo if you play the stakes that victor does and you have his skill you must play like that without thinking about the money,because if you think about the money when you play those high stakes you are broke before you begin.

and maltliq it doesent matter how his stats go and if he would lose it anyway in the game of poker{and any other gambling game}you got a thing called ethics and they crossed the line by miles,and for calling victor a donk that says more about your knowledge of the game then of victors poker skills,and about your mental state. I bet you don't last a week with a million bankroll at the stakes victor plays at but you are probably a jealous sad little boy with no skills or girlfriend hahahahahaha idiot!!!!

and by the way what kind of ratio is that for a headammin lol
