'durrrr Challenge' Update

Posted By Diego | Other News | May 10, 2009, 06:56 AM |

The fascinating online poker “durrrr Challenge” came off a twelve-day hiatus yesterday, with Patrik Antonius and Tom “durrrr” Dwan sitting down for a nearly four-hour session of $200/400 heads-up pot-limit Omaha. The high-stakes rivals put in another 842 hands of play on their way to 50,000, and for the third consecutive session, Antonius turned a profit. The $75,153 he took off Dwan yesterday expanded his total lead to $159,727, the largest lead either player has taken over the other for the life of the challenge. Thus far, the two have logged 12,956 hands. That’s still 37,044 hands to go and their pseudo-deadline — the start of the World Series of Poker — is only 28 days away.
