We promise we're not just camped out at Table 23, they're just the only ones providing any action.
The board read when Tom "durrrr" Dwan led for 1,350 and a player in the cutoff raised to 4,000. Dwan shoved all in and the player in the cutoff folded.

Unfortunately for them their table will never break and they will just have to learn to get along.

Chad Batista was the first to sit there, and is one of our chipleaders, but now he is tablemates with Tom "durrrr" Dwan and Isaac Haxton.

Tom "durrrr" Dwan opened to 700 and was called by one player at his table in the Pavilion Room.
