Dwan loses another $1.3 million
By Sean Lind
For the second time in less than a week, Tom "durrrr" Dwan lost $1.3 million in one night playing on Full Tilt Monday.
It appears Dwan's biggest leak is table selection, as he chose to spend his entire night sitting across from two of the most feared and respected players in the world: Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies and Phil Ivey.
Dwan's night started on his two private $500/$1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha tables with Sahamies and the action was nothing less than furious with a $160k pot played just three hands in, and multiple $300k pots played over the duration of the session.
After almost two hours and 274 hands, Sahamies came out well on top with over $626k of Dwan's money.
Dwan then went on to play the same game heads up against Ivey, quickly losing $200k over a short 35-hand session.
However, Dwan wasn't just getting schooled on the PLO tables. His attempts at making some of his losses back by playing 7-Game went just as poorly.
Across 1,053 hands Dwan lost another $475k on the mixed tables bringing his losses on the night to $1.3 million.
In the end, Ivey came out with the largest profit of $586k, over $100k ahead of Sahamies' final $463k result.
Patrik Antonius failed to keep his year's profit above the $7 million dollar mark, losing a little over $140k, but still remains the year's top earner by more than $3 million.
Below are replays of some of last night's largest pots, head to MarketPulse to see the rest.

Good to know that phil is resting up before the main event final table!!! I know, he never rests but still.....one time?

Phil is keeping sharp and hopefully will remain hot and knock out opponents left, right and center before he wins heads up on 1min.

I often wonder... When seing the last hand where Ziigmund's aces hold I can't help but hinking: Are we supposed to be impressed by the "skills" behind the play in this hand?
Ziigmund raises max, Durrr max, Ziigmund max, Durrr max, Ziigmund all-in, Durrr call.
When Ziigmund raises back to 27,000$ does Durrr really think he has odds to raise again???
He has 3 moves there: fold, call or raise... and he choses the worst of those 3...
A lot of HU highstakes omaha seems to be about getting it all-in pre-flop - if these guys are the best in the world why do they then continously take the skill out of the game by just raising and raising? - like here where Durrr even has a fairly mediocre hand!
Makes me wonder...

Perhaps he was on tilt, after losing to Phil Ivey's nut hands/monsters, maybe he's thinking, I'm due to win a bingo/flip.

Durr is way to young to have any kind of appreciation for money.
Wait kid life has a lot of lessons to teach you.
One would think after being 3.3 mil up the kid would take a raincheck and enjoy a life of luxury for awhile instead of dumping it all back to REAL pros .How can he expect to beat the likes of Phil Ivey???
He should quit now before he loses the lot ..
