People might think It's a stupid question.. but if you could, tomorrow, stake one in a 24 hour hu nlhe session.. who would it be?
Personaly I'd have to go with Dwan. Ivey is great but Dwan is just relentless. They both seem to have that god like gift of poker... and the aggression factor has always struck fear into Ivey's opponents.. but now I think even Ivey might have the durrr factor brewing in the back of his brain as well (I say this after watching the wsope cashgame and the new Hsp, of course).
I hear there's another epic hand coming on hsp between the two. (-- (completely made up by me, but willing to give 3/1 to anyone).

I know durrrr ends up big in hsp.. so i think he and Ivey must play a big pot. Did you guys see the a2 (ivey) vs 67(durrrr) 345 flop in that euro cash game?. so sick. 1.3? mill pot

Hello everybody! If it is to play on the internet I stack durrrr. Otherwise, live without any hesitation it will Ivey. And a stupid bet Phil Laak. is not in question? See you soon for new posts lol!

I'm going with Dwan because of the way you put up your question.Namely the point about staking a 24 hour period. i think Dwan is a good player but he has good runs. I don't think he will do any good in the long run, and wil eventually go bust...In a year loing stake, I'll go with Ivey

thanks teteban, for actually reading and responding. In a long stretch.. it's way to close to tell..but in the long run.. i agree, Ivey all the way.24 hour.. i think dwan would rip Ivey a new 1 just because of the aggression and Ivey i has more experience live and really has to try and believe Tom.. (I understand if i dont make any sense to some, but durrrr has a heart the size of Texas.. not that Ivey dont, just Ivey has been around longer and understands he can fold in 1 spot, to get revenge in another... when Durrr has less live experience and is always willing to lose it all on a bluff)
Im sure in time, Tom will settle down. buy all these people that are railing Isisldur.. mesmorized.. If you really want to rail some worth railing, watch Durrrr.. try to learn from him. Anyone who can come back from his low point its just sick. I know he was backed playing Isil (some say the Dang brothers, others say PA) whatever.
I like durrrr because of the heart he shows.. Ivey shows it from time to time but really, who else REALLy tries, and succeeds at winning almost every pot..
And DAGOR, i agree with you as well.. Im thinking HU live though
