Tom "durrrr" Dwan was looking to take down a big pot himself, but without a real hand, his only resort was to bluff. Pulling the trigger proved particularly difficult against the Israeli pro Eli Elezra and Gabe Kaplan didn't take long to figure out what the problem was:
"Dwan's trying to read Eli, doesn't realize if you wanna read Eli, you gotta go from right to left."
Matusow and Negreanu all in twice
Mike "The Mouth" Matusow didn't take part in that many hands thus far. However, this has changed in the latest episode of High Stakes Poker, as Matusow stirred up the action in what turned out to be the two biggest pots of the night.Matusow went up against Daniel Negreanu in both of these pots. The first pot built up to nearly $330k, while the second one was just shy of $500k. You can find more info below:
