Durrrrswing: Dwan dumps $1 million

Tom Dwan and Phil Ivey

By Sean Lind

Tom Dwan continued a year of horrific swings dumping over $1 million as Phil Ivey crushed the Pot-Limit Omaha tables on Full Tilt last night.

The high stakes tables were actually brimming with action last night.

On top of a little No-Limit Hold'em and nose-bleed stakes 7-Game action, Ivey took on both Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies and Dwan at heads up $500/$1,000 PLO, crushing the game for over $800k.

Considering Sahamies made it out of the PLO bloodbath with a profit of $85k, Ivey's profit seems to have come almost entirely from Dwan. Over 627 painful hands, Dwan lost a grotesque $1.1 million.

Despite his efforts to subsidize his PLO losses through Hold'em, Dwan could only manage to grind back $100k, ending his night down seven figures.

Ivey was unable to repeat his PLO performance on the NLHE tables, but it wasn't for lack of effort. After 515 hands, Ivey lost over $377k, finishing his night with just over $418k in profits.

On the 7-Game tables, David Beyamine finally pulled off a win, playing 3,576 hands to earn $408k. Patrik Antonius sat for 1,000 of those hands to make $248k of his own.

In fact, Antonius pulled one of the biggest overall wins of the night, adding another $452k in PLO profits to his 7-Game figures. Over 1,200+ hands, Antonius finished the night $700k in the black.

Below are some of the largest hits Dwan took on the night, including one disgusting loss with the big full. To see a dozen more $100k+ pots, head to MarketPulse.

To be fair, Dwan was behind from the start.

This makes me throw up a little.

It just wasn't Dwan's night.
