I've been watching him play against Ziigmund for 30 minutes and he is already down 500k...i know he is good, but Ziigmund is great at Omaha!

Interesting to watch them playing live at FT Poker!

And all the junkies are asking every minute for cash...

Please send me 5 bucks! PLEAAASE...

Hearing this just made my day. I can't stand Dwan. Every time he is on High Stakes he thinks he is God and should win every pot

what i meant is that even when he was outplayed and lost he goes on to keep saying i should have won, i had the best hand when he clearly didn't and was outplayed

Durrrr seems VERY humble to me. Consider what he has accomplished in his short life. Then compare him to other great leaders in the fields of sports/celebrity/entertainment. He is more humble then almost all of them. He is one of top 5 hold em/omaha players in the world. I love watching him and I root for him.

I have never seen this. He once in a great while at showdown if his opponent has a weak hand but wins will say " I play so bad". He is chastise himself for not betting the river to take down pot.

Tom "durrrr" Dwan crushed Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies today at Full Tilt Poker and is now up about $7,3 million for the year. At the moment it seems that nobody can't stop him.

i think you have him confused with hellmuth

durrrr never has gone on a "tirade" of any sort lol

im not the biggest durrrr fan either but even i can admit that hes never complained about a beat...he may have said "i would have won" but hes not the only player on HSP that says stuff like this...negreanu, matusow, hellmuth, benyamine have all said stuff like that, and none were tirades

i think most people hate on durrr because
- he plays so crazy and wins and no one really likes the guy who raises so many pots and plays super aggressive
- he is a young guy who has achieved a level of success most people will never achieve
- he kinda looks like hes gay (not that theres anything wrong with that) LOL

This is just entirely false or , at best, an INCREDIBLE exaggeration.

If you say himn do this once then OK, but to say thats "all he does" is just false, period.

do you guys really think i don't know the difference between Hellmuth and Dwan? I have watched every episode that Dwan has been in and can say he does it 70% of the time when he loses

I agree, he shows up just wearing that old sweatshirt and he doesn't talk shit at all, he just plays poker with some small talk mixed in. Most of these young online players come on TV and they dress up like idiots, sunglasses baseball hat on crooked.

he does think out loud, like "I should have won" or "I should have bet" but he's not saying it like he's some kind of god he's just thinking out loud where he thinks he made a mistake.

People that hate him are just jealous, I'm definitely jealous, but I don't hate.
