Tom Durrrr Dwan’s Live Million Dollar Cash Game Challenge
Watch Tom »Durrrr« Dwan play against different opponents in Million Dollar Cash game Challenge!
This blog post is about Tom »Durrrr« Dwan and his Live Million Dollar Challenge where he is playing Heads Up Poker games live against various different poker players.
As you may or may not know, TV Poker Shows are one way of getting valuable insights into how Poker Pros are making decisions when it comes to poker games.That is why I want to introduce you to another TV Poker Show, which will be especially interesting to you in case you are into Heads Up Games cash games.
Watch how Tom Dwan confronts different opponents in high stakes heads-up poker cash games in the video below and I bet you will learn something about how to play heads up live poker for sure! The first episode below is where Dwan plays versus Sammy Georges (worth watching if/when you have some time to spend).
To add some thoughts on Tom »Durrrr« Dwan alongside this video, before Durrrr joined Team Full Tilt Poker in November 2009, Tom was already playing in the highest staked online poker games on Full Tilt Poker with a nickname »durrrr«.
Not to mention, how he was already well established and known in the Poker world before that too. There were rumors that he has not yet experienced a serious downswing and as soon as that happens he will go broke.
Well, until today that has not (yet?) happened (at least he did not go broke). Instead, he seems to be beating the highest poker table limits just fine. To give you an example:
Tom Dwan’s winrate (BB per 100 hands) on $500/$1000 No-limit Holdem SH table limits after more than 50.000 played hands is almost 5.7. That basically means he is winning over $10K for every 100 hands played! In case he is multitabling (which I am sure he does) he can play 100 hands in (lets say) less than 30 minutes.
Not bad I would say! : )
In case you do not know, live Million Dollar Challenge is basically similar to Online Million Dollar Challenge. The difference is obviously in how or where the games are played and the numbers of hands played.
While in Online Million Dollar Challenge (or the original Durrrr Challenge) both Tom Dwan and his opponent (currently Patrik Antonius) are required to play 50k hands on limits of $200/$400 or higher (multitabling on 4 tables), Live Million Dollar Challenge is less marathon like.
In other words: the number of played hands is a lot lower in live challenge.
To sum it up: Full Tilt Poker’s Live Million Dollar Challenge with Tom »Durrrr« Dwan is a very interesting TV Poker Show that is definitely worth watching! Here it is:
As always: Good luck at the online poker tables, be it on Full Tilt Poker or Lucky Ace Poker or somewhere else. : )
