Tom Dwan Issues Live Heads-Up Challenge in London


Tom Dwan, the renowned poker player known as Durrrr, has issued a new challenge to the poker community. This time, he is inviting any player to a live heads-up match in London. The stakes for each match are set at $500,000 with blinds at $500/$1,000. The matches will be part of the Durrrr Million Dollar Challenge TV program, where Dwan will face four opponents in a series of four matches.

In the online version of the challenge, Tom Dwan and Patrick Antonius have already played over 20,000 hands. Dwan is currently leading with a $726,000 advantage. The winner will be determined after 50,000 hands. Stay tuned for updates on who will accept Dwan's challenge and the outcomes of these high-stakes matches.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
