Why i cant watch this game? Perhaps due to the variation with the new winning hands. Something that has frustrated dwan, since his full house lost from the flush, in the double draw. And the total amount lost was a pain also. Almost a million USD. A fortune

I get the feeling that he is only there so the producers of this series can make him look like a chump. It's basically equals with a clickbait article - I think he is so much better player than this... But he signed up for this himself.

Poor Dwan can't catch a break. One can only hope he doesn't play exclusivly with his money. Usually it wouldn't be a smart moe from Robl to go all in with a flush draw on a already paired board, bit for this version of holdem there are different rules. But back luck for Dwan to lose both halves of the hand.

After his face, Tom Dwan it does not feel too good. I do not understand why he was complicated to play this game. She knew very well that a color beats a ful,l but he paid. I do not understand, he is a professional player but he plays like an amateur. Why he does this?

They many get backed up from others also. It is not a secret that many times professional players selling action. But besides that who know how much money he actually has made so far, from poker. All these losses while huge for us, may have not an impact on him or his game
he is of course a good player ... this is his bad lane in the game now ... then this is of course temporary .... maybe here he will not be able to change his fate and he will not be able to show decent results ... But this is nothing says .... he still remains a great poker player .... And next time He will show it

Until it shows us again that he is a big player, he will have to stop calling to some hands, because even the fish players make fold, at that hand when he asked for one million after he lost. I would like Tom Dwan to make a major tournament at a final table with big players, but to play as a professional not like an amateur.

I guess not much of that money is his. Probably staked by somebody (or somebodies).

Looked up the hand in the video, a bit different then stated in the text. Actualy quite horrible play by Dwan. Checking when ahead, betting when behind. And for the final call; i can only asume that he sucessfully convinced himself, that it was just a squeze play bei Robl.
