Luke “FullFlush” Schwartz Wants in on the Durrrr Challenge

Luke aka FullFlush1 Schwartz recently wrote a blog on Blackbelt Poker saying that he is interested in playing the Durrrr Challenge, but would much prefer to play only around 20K hands or so after seeing how long Patrik Antonius and Tom Dwan are taking in this first Durrrr Challenge, taking about 4 months to complete just 20K hands.  FullFlush1 is willing to reduce the odds from 3:1 to just 2:1 if Tom Dwan will agree to shorten the required number of hands.

This matchup would be great for poker because there would definitely be more trash talking and much more excitement than the current Durrrr vs Patrik battle.  FullFlush would also likely choose to play no limit hold’em, which would also be more exciting to follow than the PLO that all the other entrants will likely be choosing.  FullFlush is known for saying what he thinks, no matter how rude or inappropriate that is, which has brought him a lot of press in the online poker community.

Before any new Durrrr Challenge can begin though, the first one has to finish.  Currently Durrrr is up just over $725K after a huge swing that saw Durrrr win $750,000 in a huge 15 hour session.  The two have now played slightly over 20,000 hands so there is still a lot of time for Patrik to make up the difference and get back in the challenge.

The Durrrr Challenge Gets Very Tight after a couple of short sessions

Durrrr and Patrik Antonius played 2 short sessions over the weekend with very different results.  In the first session Patrik dominated Dwan finishing the session up $161K and pulling into the lead with a $107K advantage over Dwan.  The next session was the complete opposite with Dwan coming up on top by $123K and pulled back into the overall lead by just $15K.  The two have now played a total of 5928 hands.  It looks promising that the challenge is still going and the two are still meeting for sessions, but with 44000 hands yet to be played and the sessions seeming to get further and further apart, we can only hope that the challenge is completed in the next few months.

The Durrrr Challenge is back and Antonius pulls closer to Durrrr

The Durrrr Challenge finally had it’s sixth session after a long lull.  This session lasted for almost 3 hours and 914 hands were played.  After it was all said and done, Antonius was up a little over $87K for the day, which brings him back to within $53,640 of Tom ‘Durrrr’ Dwan.  Hopefully the challenge will continue and regain the hype that it had at the beginning before the long break.  The battle is as close as it has ever been and it will be fun to watch the next 45,000 hands play out.
