Online Poker -- Tom Dwan Gets Another Taker in Durrrr ChallengeJungleman12 Expresses Interest In 50,000-Hand Competition |
|
The 2010 World Series of Poker is over, at least until November, so it is time for the poker world to get things back to normal. Though he didn’t cash in on his bracelet prop bets, Tom “durrrr” Dwan can at least be comforted by the fact that he no longer has to sprint across the Amazon Room from tournament to tournament in an effort to multi-table.
In fact, the young Full Tilt Poker pro has been doing all of his multi-tabling from the comfort of his home, taking on the likes of URnotINdanger2 and Jungleman12.
Against URnotINdanger2, Dwan logged over 7,000 hands playing $50-$100 pot-limit Omaha. Though he lost just more than six figures in that match, he was able to win it all back and then some against some other players to book a small $12,000 win on the day.
Though the action has been relatively tame, the big news is that Dwan is itching to play and has perhaps found the newest taker of his Durrrr Challenge in Jungleman12. After some time spent at the $100-$200 no-limit hold’em tables, the two online phenoms had this conversation.
durrrr: y dont u take challenge
durrrr: since u never lose to me
jungleman12: i will prob
jungleman12: maybe
jungleman12: isnt bt next or something?
durrrr: i can do 2 at once
durrrr: ship ivey 500k n we will work out details
durrrr: get my aim from someone
jungleman12: ok
durrrr: i wanna crank out at least 2 of em before london if poss
jungleman12: ill talk to you over aim before doing it
durrrr: we could obv play in like 2 weeks
jungleman12: k
durrrr: kk gg
Though he still has just over 20 percent of his first match remaining, it doesn’t look like Patrik Antonius is in any rush to finish. Antonius is currently down over $1.8 million to Dwan and would owe him another $500,000 on top of that once the match concluded. A 50,000-hand match with Jungleman12 would only take a fraction of the time it has taken with Antonius, especially with Dwan so eager to play.

Caught Dwan playing 2-7 No Limit with Billy Baxter, Johnny Chan and Shawn Sheikhan at Commerce the other day. Looked like he was holding his own...

I railed a little of the durrrr v. jungleman action and it was brutal - for durrrr. He was absolutely owned by jungleman.
Should be interesting.
Still willing to put my money on durrrr.
