Tom "durrrr" Dwan ended last week in the best possible way at Full Tilt Poker. In just 2,362 hands, Dwan managed to win over 1,5 million dollars. Most of this money came from a thrilling heads-up battle against finnish poker star Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies at a $500/$1000 Pot Limit Omaha table. Four of the pots in this session topped the $275,000 mark, durrrr won all of them, including a monster pot of $416,996.
Here is how the hand was played out:
Ziigmund sits with a $207k stack while durrrr has a stack of $345,000. Ziigmund bets $3,000 and durrrr raise to $9,000. Ziigmund four-bet to $18,000 and Dwan calls. Flop is J
