Tom "durrrr" Dwan on the durrrr challenge

Tags: durrr challenge, durrrr, tom dwan.
Posted on 11 November 2010 by "T".

Tom Dwan's blog has been quite dead in the past 3 months. However, he made a bigger update of his blog a few days ago. In this blog post Dwan writes about what he has been up to in the past couple of weeks - filming for Poker After Dark, a wedding, halloween, being sick, lots of traveling etc. The most interesting reading, however, is what he had to say about the 2 challenges against Patrik Antonius and jungleman.

"I have 2 challenges open, both of which havent had much play in the last few weeks. I was busy with wsope, then traveling a bunch- but in the next few days/weeks i should be putting in a ton of hands with jungleman. With regards to the patrik challenge, i want to clear up the thought that he's stalling or doesn't want to pay if he loses or something like that. Patrik and i talk a lot and he's definitely done nothing wrong by me in the slightest. I don't know if we'll be finishing soon but hopefully we will, and sorry to the people watching that challenge that its gone on for so long."

I like the sentence that he writes about lot of things, like weddings and so, BUT the most interesting is his challenge Big Smile

Almost 2 years rolling. If Dwan is right, then shame on Patrik, he got commited so he must finish it. But this is durrrr talking... Can he be bluffing again? Blink

50.000 hands, normally these crazy guys make this in one month on a HU game... strange, but there are maybe other interests that we do not know. Never forget, Highstack is a PROMOTION show, not Poker...

i am really wondering if those guys are actually playing with those sums.
i mean we hear 1M, 2M, but what human being would give away such an amount of money into, lets say, a 55% edge to win?? it makes me so curious ..

atleast tht challenge with jungleman is gonna continue, so we gonna hav some interesting action in few days. regarding patrik's challenge its taken too long and many ppl hav even lost interest in tht.

yeah man, they are playing for million of DOLLARS, thast the think.

in this world you can have a minimarket in a city, or had a lot of mall by all the country, most of us playing poker are like the minimarket, but otherwise there are the big markets like durr antonious ivey etc etc... thats the thing, they are like big enerprises looking for that 5% benefits over millions and millions they bet, simply and clear Big Smile

I've watched Durrr play @ fulltilt. He's got a good game, in my opinion a little to cocky at times. Has a tendency to tilt easy. All in all though hes a good player, I wish him the best with these challenges. How did he do with Ivey I don't recall who won the challenge?

he built his own bankroll so u cant criticize him there Blink
 themole13/11/2010 21:19:22 GMT
i can't stomach tom, i find him very.... i dunno hard to put my finger on it but he's quite meh in my mind. i can;t wait to watch jungleman crush him!
 AbuDhabi13/11/2010 21:40:57 GMT
I like him, want to see how he will fight with jungle - they are really top in CG players. This challenge is better than the one with Patrik. That was easy for durrr, this one will be much harder...
 mahdrof14/11/2010 18:58:36 GMT
Jungleman is currently where Durrrr was two years ago: a feared competitor for even the most seasoned veteran, on top of his game and afraid of no one. I think Durrrr bit off more than he thought and is gonna get a chunk torn out of him by Jungleman. THIS is an interesting one to follow!
