Viktor Blom (also known as Isildur1 and grolongo) was always known as a shy, reserved player who doesn’t talk much at the tables, but plays so aggressively he doesn’t need any words to be intimidating. He finished 16th at the WSOPE Main Event, and after leaving the table, he caused some unpleasant moments to ESPN reporters by refusing to give an interview to them.
Blom seemed pretty upset after getting up from the table, and he refused the interview with ESPN, which is rather awkward for the company, since they were able to interview all of the eliminated players except Blom. Of course it is understandable why ‘Isildur1’ might have resisted all 3 reporters’ attack, he is a really private and quiet person (as most northern people are), he might not be interested in the fame that surrounds pro poker players, he is much more serious about his performance than that.
He also just might have had enough of the constant bugging of reporters, whether he is or is not the same person as ‘Isildur1’ and ‘grolongo’. I’m not sure.
