Antonius Grabs Lead Back From Dwan in Durrrr Challenge
- Lance Bradley | March 26, 2009
Tom Dwan and Patrik Antonius played another 460 hands of the Durrrr Challenge Thursday with the lead, and $92,021, changing hands.
The session took just under 90 minutes with Antonius, who trailed Dwan by almost $67,000 at the start of the day, winning the biggest pot of the session just before play broke. Things started well for Dwan with a nearly $80,000 pot coming his way. Antonius raised to $1,200, Dwan made it $3,600 to go and Antonius called. The flop came Q
