Online Poker — Tom Dwan Gets Another Taker in Durrrr Challenge

July 29th, 2010

Though he didn’t cash in on his bracelet prop bets, Tom “durrrr” Dwan can at least be comforted by the fact that he no longer has to sprint across the Amazon Room from tournament to tournament in an effort to multi-table since how the 2010 World Series of Poker is over, at least until November. In fact, the young Full Tilt Poker pro has been doing all of his multi-tabling from the comfort of his home, taking on the likes of URnotINdanger2 and Jungleman12.

Against URnotINdanger2, Dwan logged over 7,000 hands playing $50-$100 pot-limit Omaha. Though he lost just more than six figures in that match, he was able to win it all back and then some against some other players to book a small $12,000 win on the day.
Though the action has been relatively mild, the big news is that Dwan wanting to play and has perhaps found the newest taker of his Durrrr Challenge in Jungleman12.

Though Patrik Antonius still has just over 20 percent of his first match remaining, it doesn’t look like he is in any hurry to finish. Antonius is currently down over $1.8 million to Dwan and would owe him another $500,000 on top of that once the match concluded. A 50,000-hand match with Jungleman12 would only take a fraction of the time it has taken with Antonius, especially with Dwan so eager to play.
