After a relatively quiet match with Marcello “luckexpress” Marigliano that saw the Italian up $22k, followed by a back and forth with fellow high-stakes regular Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies that saw durrrr walk away $68k in the black, it fell upon English poker pro Sammy “any two” George to salvage some of the expectations poker fans had going into the contest.

When the smoke cleared, the George vs. Dwan match was exactly what poker fans were expecting all along: Big pots, and big wins and losses. In the end it was durrrr who ended up the big winner, taking $750k off Sammy George. In total Tom Dwan ended the three challenge matches up close to $800k, which should take a little sting off his recent losses to “Isildur1” at the Full Tilt Poker tables.

2009 has been a bad year thus far for Dwan with online losses in the neighborhood of $5 million; although the young phenom also signed with Full Tilt Poker which probably was the most expensive player signing of all-time.

Poker Tip: If you want to play with Durrrr at Full Tilt Make sure you get the best rakeback offer for Full Tilt.
