Here's a new drinking game...everytime Dwan looks up, drink! LOL

Anyways...

This guy is pretty good, winning and LOSING cash. But how could do you think he'll be when he starts playing a few years at the wsop?

Maybe for some of that sweet sweet endorsement money?

Like you said though, when you're up $4.5m in cash games why would you bother? Signing an endorsement usually ties you to playing on just one site and when you make your living playing online cash games, why would you want to limit your action?

I imagine he probably plays them because if most of the other high-stakes cash game players are playing WSOP tournaments as well then there's not a great deal of other action at the time.

he does some of the most rediculous raising of anybody out there, especially on the net. with that said, although he loses a ton of money, he usually can bully people and make it back. he knows odds.

^ FYP.

He may play a high variance style but he's a winner over any significant time period you care to bring up.

Hellmuth: "We'll see how good Dwan is when he hits a real bankroll swing and we'll see if he can bounce back"

Dwan: "Yeah... I hit a 2 million skid recently.. it kinda sucked"

Lol at durrrr being called one of the worst hold'em players you've ever seen. You must have only seen some really really really good players then.

Seriously durrrr, along with Ivey, are imo the two top NL Hold'em players on the planet right now.

He's a good player, but his nose and ears are right out of the Lord of the Rings. Maybe his elvish magic makes him a better player. LOL

He crushed NLHE for a while, then started playing Omaha and lost a ton of money.

i honestly think that he was just running really well for most of the year, then the inevitable downswing hit and he stayed at the high stakes for too long
