Durrrr Outflops Basher for Nothing

Our second all-in of the round came from the high-octane match between Tom "Durrrr" Dwan and Don Cheadle. The actor check-raised Dwan on a {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop, and Dwan put him all in. Cheadle called with {a-}{j-} to see that Dwan had hit top and bottom with {a-}{3-}. But the {10-Clubs} turn paired the board and meant Dwan was suddenly way behind. The {k-Diamonds} river saved him from doubling Cheadle, and the chopped it up.
