It was definately a heater for Tom and i think he really needed an online victory even if it seems that he is specialized in high stakes live cash games nowadays.
I have to admit that both him and Viktor had an amazing start on FTP this year
Posted by marqis: Nice hand, how do you shove with just a pair of kings and a straight draw there?
Phil Galfond's reading ability I guess His hand was way in front. Sick beat for him. The 7 on the turn, ouch, worst card ever but still the guy who won had the best wrap possible! In general it's a great hand, even in a 3 way pot, but not in this case...
Anyways congratulations to Durrr, when he wins, he wins big! And he doesn't lose as much as Isildur1

Any doubts that Tom "durrrr" Dwan had lost his ability to mix it with the new breed of online players were well and truly crushed as he completed a $1.3 million haul. However, despite his impressive performance, the American is still down $327,475 since the start of the year.

Last week it was Blom who was highlighted, this week he's among the biggest losers... After reading that hand, it's almost hard to believe durrr's leading the biggest winnings. Patpatpanda had all on his side on that hand, must have been increadible to see such a big pot with the odds all on his side since the begining!

That's poker guys..."it's full of swings both up and down, as we all know but not in relation to such huge amounts that would make your nose bleed if you were there.. all respect to these guys for playing such high stakes .

Tom "durrrr" Dwan's recent upswing ran into a Phil Ivey-sized speed bump on Monday as the two clashed at the virtual felt. After grinding through almost 4,000 hands, Dwan found himself down by $693,399, while Ivey enjoyed a $582,101 bankroll boost. However, in the last 24 hours Dwan has managed to reverse his fortunes by banking $934,097 over the course of 3,406 hands.

The quickest $500,000+ loss of the day, however, came from "5tgb6yhn7". Having played just 754 hands, the online grinder left the virtual felt after dropping $505,066. These high stakes players can win or loose millions in one day.Insane adicts
