Durrr Challenge

For those of you who havent heard, Tom "durrrrr" Dwan has offered an open challenge to the poker world. He has offer 1.5 million to 500k that he can beat anyone (save his best friends) in an online poker match. They will play 4 tables at a time of either PLO or NL Holdem. The stakes are a minimum of 200/400. The match is for 50,000 hands. This expected to take about 80 -125 hours of play.

So far 3 people have stepped up to the plate and its a veritable whos who of poker. Phil Ivey, Patrik Antonius, and David Benyamine. Buzz has been flowing through the world of poker about how this match will turn out. Most have speculated that the winner of the match will most likely make an EIGHT figure score. Thats a spicy meatball.

These matches may well go down in poker histroy with the two other big ones. First being Johnny Moss and Nick the Greek out front of the Horseshoe. The second being the poker corporation vs Andy Beal. Thsi included a 17 million dollar victory by Phil Ivey to swing the match to the Corp. Honarable mention goes to the deathmatch between Ted Forrest and Hamid Damsalchi (definetly misspelled).

I am taking Durrrr. Online four tabling is way to big an advantage.
