HighStakes: Durrrr's winning streak is over

Tags: durrr challenge, full tilt poker, high stakes, patrik antonius, tom dwan.
Posted on 04 May 2010 by "T".

Tom "durrrr" Dwan has been running extremely good this year and he has won many million dollars. Well, last week the winning streak came to an end and he ended up losing over $2 million dollars. Most of the money durrrr lost was during the weekend. Even though durrrr had a tough week at the tables, he's still up a few millions this year and also has a big lead in the durrrr challenge with about 11,000 hands to go. If he wins the durrrr challenge, he will get $500,000 from Patrik Antonius. Speaking of Patrik Antonius. He finally got his long-awaited win last week and also became the biggest winner with a profit of $707,043.

It will be interesting to see how the last 11k hands of the durrrr challenge will affect his results in the coming weeks/months. I personally think that he will continue playing his game and not try to loose up his game too much. Because that could cost him more than the $500,000 he has to give to Tom Dwan if he loses the challenge.

Last week's WINNERS and losers:

1. Patrik Antonius, $707 043

2. Luukie21, $541 833

3. tibster24, $516 048

4. jungleman12, $490 011
5. THEDONKEYNO1, $488 938

1. durrrr, -$2 076 745

2. MicahJ, -$566 677
3. Brian Townsend, -$444 663
4. URnotINdanger2, -$360 708
5. luvtheWNBA, -$272 799

Im gutted for him. He was about to be the first player to have 10 mil in winnings at full tilt. It always sucks when you hit a downswing just before a milestone
 Kristan04/05/2010 13:45:48 GMT
Just another day in the office, as he says.

The Jungleman12 to who he lost over 700k just seemed to be very lucky as hes been grinding up less than 1 mil over 2 years.

FTW Durrrr, im sure he will go way over 10 mil thisyear! Blink

theres SOME fairness in this world after all ...
 shokaku04/05/2010 16:23:32 GMT
Had to happen. Without a major donator like Guy, the money at the highest stakes will flow between the players. Dwan may be better than most, but he will be hit by the variance too.

PLO is very swing game.... it was obvious he will get some downswing soon.
I don't like durrr to much so i won't cry about this ^^.
 xxxbchxxx05/05/2010 03:29:55 GMT
every one get a touch of variance and i suppose playing at the top of any game you winn come up against a similar type and skill of player.
so winning one week and going down the next can be expected... no one dominates at the high stakes for long.
as for the challenge i feel its all about damage limitation for PA now he can just try and get a little of the cash from him now to pay him with later.
 chrisselito05/05/2010 12:12:15 GMT
He will come back soon =)
 Funope05/05/2010 19:39:19 GMT
I watched at full Tilt and he plays like a maniac.
 MANUEDO05/05/2010 21:02:05 GMT
It's just a moment of bada variance; he will start again to win a lot soon

Im triyng to be nice and understand every players comment in its own way but - COULD YOU ATLEAST READ WHAT SH*IT YOU ARE WRITING? DOES IT HURTS TO BE AN IDIOT OR YOU JUST DONT KNOW JET YOU ARE ONE`?

Im not protecting Dwan, but if someone speaks sht like that hes just lucky, while hes played more hands than anyone else in high stakes with very short time, proving hes not just anoter flicker in high stakes world. Its not time that counts - its the number of hands youve played thru!!!!!!

And we have another candidate for "I dont know nothing about poker, I just write whatever my low iq products atm" title! Aww crap!

Sometimes it feels like some players should be banned for writing comments to threads that not in off topic section lol!
 dozn0109/05/2010 11:57:10 GMT
oh no durr luck is over........ it had to end soon, this little blip wont of touched his bankroll thou un us lot
 SuperNoob14/05/2010 14:29:26 GMT
well thats durrrr for you, when hes winning he is unbeatable nothing can stop him. but when he starts losing even a donk looks smarter than him
 jevo14/05/2010 14:44:37 GMT
He is actually an awsome player, his thought processes are excellent. Most people here don't play heads up and think about his moves as fishy/donkey but they're comparing them to FR/6M which is obv stupid.

I can't stand the guy though.

 luckyDonk14/05/2010 14:51:35 GMT
durr is the best Smile

I seriously don't see how people can continue to call Dwan a donkey. Or imply as such. Jealous much?
 watoba15/05/2010 02:05:35 GMT
i got a downswing too lost the last week all hands where i was favourite and lost 90% on the river and go broke on my favourite site not much but 300$.So i stop playing for a while.My last hand was KT flop AKT and lost against AQ with the Q on the river Aww crap!
yeah poker is an up and down equal you are a pro or a amateur
 x4lee18/05/2010 22:59:15 GMT
If any of you make it to 100/200....

Then you can talk shit about tom. Til then, your opinion is invalid.
 beth8618/05/2010 23:18:20 GMT
durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr is hot
 fendurrr20/05/2010 07:15:33 GMT
this guy should learn to spell and speak correctly.
 jporp20/05/2010 10:21:00 GMT
No problem to durrrr. In 2 days he will win more than he lost. He is a machine.

Best player nowadays
 NaziPal21/05/2010 09:59:57 GMT
Personally durr is one of my favorites, and its sad to hear him lose. But then again, everyone has to loose some time.
The big loss (in terms of amount) is not really surprising. A player of durr's style really will have big swings.
I can go on as to why i like durr, but this would be the wrong topic to talk about in this post. Smile
