Railbird Alert: durrrr Challenge Tables Open in Full Tilt Lobby
- Lance Bradley | February 13, 2009
It was only last month that Tom “durrrr” Dwan laid out the challenge that had the entire poker world talking.
“I’m making this heads-up challenge to the world. Anyone can accept. Four tables, minimum of $200/$400, and I’ll put up $1.5 million to their $500,000. We play 50,000 hands minimum and if they end up a dollar after rake they keep the side money or whatever. So basically, if you and I played and you won a dollar, you would get my $1.5 million and if I won a dollar I would win your $500,000,” Dwan said.
In the hours after the challenge two players stepped up and accepted; Phil Ivey and Patrik Antonius. Now Full Tilt Poker has set-up special tables to host the challenge. Four tables, all $200/$400 Pot Limit Omaha, are in the lobby under the name “durrrr Challenge“. There’s no set time to play although Dwan believes the first deal should happen this weekend.
“It looks like the challenge will be starting up in the next day, or two,” said Dwan. “Although it could begin at any time, without warning.”
The first set of matches will apparently be played against Antonius and will only involve Pot Limit Omaha.
