durrrr Dominating The Online Poker World

Tom "durrrr" Dwan (pictured right) dominated High Stakes Poker veterans
such as Daniel Negreanu and Barry Greenstein, so what else did he do?

His recent activities included playing HU PLO against three different
opponents at the same time, along with playing all the Mixed HA games
that were running in the meantime.

His biggest victim was Gus Hansen in the HU PLO, where the Great Dane
lost over $1 million to Dwan. The cards went in Dwan's favour in the
session between the two, which he affirmed to Hansen in the chatbox.

One of the biggest pots Dwan took away from Gus Hansen (pictured left) was for $227,984.
Hansen opened that hand with a $3,000 bet, Dwan raised to $9,000 and
Hansen ended pre-flop action with a call.

The flop came and
Dwan checked. Hansen fired a $12,000 bullet and got a quick reply in
the form of a $54,000 bullet from Dwan. Hansen moved all-in for
$116,992 and Dwan called.

Hansen revealed and Dwan turned over . The turn brought and gave Dwan the lead, which remained on the river, as offered no help to Hansen.

Gus Hansen ended the day with a $900,000 loss. It's not the first time
that he had a bad day, but in overall he tends to come on top of these
swings and end up winning more than he gives away to his opponents.

Meanwhile, Phil Ivey (pictured right) doesn't like his bankroll to swing around in
different directions every day. As such, he recorded another successful session with a slight, but still notable profit.

He was the only player who
managed to stop Dwan, ending the day with $187,000 in total winnings.

Dwan earned almost $2 million spread across the tables but recorded a
total profit of "only" $670,000 due to losing quite a bit to Ivey. One
of the biggest pots between the two was in HU PLO for $285,000.

Action began with Ivey betting $3,000 and Dwan calling it. The
flop came , Dwan bet $4,800 and this time Ivey just called. The turn
brought and Dwan bet $12,200.

Ivey raised to $47,000 and Dwan re-raised to $109,600. Ivey put in his remaining 87,909 and showed , while Dwan held . Both players had a straight, but Ivey also had two pairs which gave him a possibility to catch a full house on the river.

The river came which was one of the cards Ivey was hoping for and gave him the $285,418 pot.
