Tom Dwan and Matthew Marafioti Prop Bet at WSOP Main Event

As we all know Tom ‘Durrrr’ Dwan is a baller and he loves to get action whenever he can to keep things interesting.  Apparently the 2026 WSOP main event was getting a little boring for him so he decided to make a prop bet with fellow internet high stakes player Matthew Marafioti.  The bet was that Marafioti couldn’t finish 10 shots of Patron (which is a baller form of tequila) in 15 minutes without puking.  If Mariofiti did it Dwan paid him $5K and vice versa.

The winner of the bet is unknown, but what is known is that Mariofiti got messed up from the Patron and was actually forced to go home and sober up before continuing with the tournament.  This was probably the best move for him because he actually has a lot of chips and could have quickly lost them in his drunken state.  Durrrr of course felt a little bad, so he tipped the tournament director a few hundred dollar bills to ensure that Mariofiti got home safely.

These kids are too baller to just be happy playing the Main Event of the World Series.  Instead they need to get completely trashed trying to win a prop bet!  Pretty insane in my opinion, but I like Durrrr spicing things up and actually removing his biggest competitior from the table even though that surely wasn’t his intention.

If you want to see some more of Durrrr’s antics, watch him play Ivey or Ziigmund at the Full Tilt Poker tables.  If you are a new player you can get a Full Tilt bonus of up to $600 on your initial deposit.

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.
