Durrrr-Watch 2010: Booted from Players Only Area at WSOP

By Jason Phillips - One anonymous member of the Rio's WSOP security staff just got an unexpected - and probably unwanted - introduction to one of the hottest poker players in the world.  

Tom "durrrr" Dwan was mistakenly escorted out of a restricted section of the WSOP media and players lounge after attempting to blow by security without proper credentials. 

Dwan, who was clearly unimpressed with the overzealous security staff, brandished his cell phone and managed to snap a photo of the poker policeman's name badge in true "don't you know who I am?" fashion before storming away.

After a few passersby informed the security staffer who Dwan was and why it might not have been a great idea to throw him out of a lounge intended for poker players, he nervously explained the situation to his superior and promptly got a lesson in who not to hassle.

No word on whether the security staffer still has a job or not.
