Durrrr Still Rolling

Apparently the failed attempt at a deal sent Tom "Durrrr" Dwan into higher gear, as he's been considerably more aggressive, picking up one small pot after another. He's added another 50,000 in chips to his stack since the impromptu break and is once again approaching 200,000 in chips.

Australia v.s. U.S.A.

With six players remaining, we've noticed that the final table is divided into two nationalities. The left side of the table houses Australians Van Marcus, Mark Kassis and Michael "Sticky" Guttman, while American players Lee Watkinson, Tom "Dwan" Durrrr and Mike Sexton make up the right half.

Last longer, anyone?

Race Off

The tournament clock has been paused for a brief moment while the staff assists the players with a raceoff of the 100 denomination chips.

Sexton Doubles Up

Tom "Durrrr" Dwan opens the action with a raise to 5,200 and Mike Sexton to his immediate left pops it up another 13,400. Dwan makes the call and the two players take a flop of {3-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Dwan leads out with a bet of 35,000 which is virtually enough to put Sexton all in. Sexton announces that he is all in, and Dwan throws in some extra change to make the call.

Dwan: {5-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Sexton: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Dwan needs help as the two pair of Sexton has the lead but the {10-Diamonds} on the turn and river {J-Spades} don't deliver and Sexton doubles up to around 100,000 chips.

Van Wins

After what seemed to be a 50-60 minute massage, Mark Kassis has finally turned his masseur over to Van Marcus.
