Durrrr Challenge: Dwan Increases Lead Over Antonius
- Lance Bradley | March 24, 2009
Over the weekend Tom Dwan retook the lead in his Durrrr Challenge with Patrik Antonius and on Monday he continued his hot streak and increased his lead to just over $67,000.
Despite the overall win by Dwan the nearly two-hour session was highlighted by a $163,000 pot raked by Antonius. Sitting with nearly $120,000 behind Antonius opened for a raise to $1,200, Dwan repopped it to $3,600, Antonius three-bet to $10,800 and Dwan called. The flop came 8

and Dwan checked, Antonius bet $21,600 and Dwan called. The turn came A
and Dwan moved all-in for $49,398.50 and Antonius called. Dwan showed 9

for two pair, nines and sixes, but Antonius showed K

for a better two pair, aces and kings.
Not long after that hand Antonius took down the second largest pot of the session. He again opened for $1,200, Dwan raised to $3,600, Antonius put in another raise to $10,800 and Dwan didn’t slow down putting in the fourth raise to $21,600. Antonius called and the flop came out 3

. The turn was the 9
giving Antonius trip nines. The Q
on the river was a blank for Dwan and Antonius grabbed the $142,291.50 pot.
Still, Dwan had his own share of big wins including pots of $124,799.50, $115,598.50 and $111,986.50. After 705 hands played the two called it a night with Dwan up $51,924, pushing his total to $67,162.50. The two have now played 6,633 total hands at $200/$400 heads-up Pot Limit Omaha and Dwan is up 1.5 buy-ins. Antonius is now back in the United States which should lead to a more regular game between the two.
