Sometimes the news makes us see the reality of things. After all, Tom Dwan is just a normal person like everybody else and, for loosing his passport, he needs to pass through a burocratic process to get everything done. Although we see him as a star, he’s just a citizen who needs documents to travel, like anyone else. Incredible how a little book can change someone’s life. He could have tried to say “Can you imagine i am loosing a minimum of $260k (not counting the Money he would try to win) just because you’re keeping me here?”.

can't stop thinking about sorin888's comment : SS maybe Ivey didn't want Tom Dwan to play and suddenly he looses his passport ? okey im kidding but u never know...
Who cares why he didn't show up on that event. It isn't big money for him anyways so no damage done. But rly interesting how he loses his passport every now and then.
