So came across this hand yesterday while trying to see if Tom Dwan has a blog. For those who don’t know Dwan AKA Durr is a highly successful high stakes player and recently has been making a name for himself in the tournament scene.

This hand may be the sickest I have ever scene in terms of the stakes and the suckout.
