I've been watching some of the durrr challenge today, some really crazy hands. So far they have played more than 3500 hands. Jungleman12 is up over 633'000$, he's crushing Tom on just about every table. (Either variance or just better play)

I think Tom made the mistake of letting his opponent choose the game, if they stick to hold'em I think Jungleman will win the challenge easily.

What do you think ?

(I'm thinking about posting some updates in this thread from time to time)

i've just checked it out on pokertableratings and it seems like jungleman was winning a ton of hands preflop or very small pots, also seems like jungleman was hitting everything, every time he chased a draw on a big pot he made it by the river. durrrr seemed very unlucky. will be interesting too see what happens next.

It's been less than 24 hours. And they are now 1/10th of the way done. Jungleman is cruising...

Are you kidding? 13 buy ins in a high stakes HU game with two phenomenally aggressive players isn't that much at all.

He's been a HSNL reg for a while and he's a sicko

im not a dwan fan by any means, but i dont see him having any trouble with daniel.

they both have huge egos based on games with hi variance.

and they both havent been playing that long at especially at those hi levels -a few yrs?. so i guess well all just have to wait and see.

daniel probably wants this more than tom, so he can make a name for himself.

Um... no. Just no.

It's like onemorechance said - it's only 13 buyins in a heads up, big bet game and that's nothing when they're only 10% of the way through the challenge. Dwan was down about that much to Antonius at around the 15,000 hand mark in their challenge and 25K hands later he's up $2 million.
