When you win the largest played pot on television before the age of 25, many would call that a peak of a career. And for Tom 'durrrr' Dwan, that was just the beginning, or a steady progression to his now more than $2.6 million in live earnings.
Tom 'durrrr' Dwan to take part in the show Poker After Dark, the game will be a 6-Max table cash game no limit hold'em, where the minimum bet is 100 000$. Blinds: 200$/400. Jan 17, 2019 The Poker Brat is 54 now, and he stars in this latest Throwback Hand of Poker After Dark action against a man who, at the time of filming, was virtually half his age. Tom Dwan, the pin-up boy for the online aggro generation, took on Hellmuth in yet another hand where all the chips were over the line. Mar 08, 2017 It wasn’t as overt as his bouts with Tony G, but Dwan had a way of getting under Hellmuth’s skin just by existing (and playing aggressively). Such is the case with this Poker After Dark hand, where all Dwan had to do in order to win a big pot was to be himself and raise. As always, Doug will give you the details.
So next time you see Dwan at the table, which from his Hendon Mob profile, hasn’t been in a while, maybe keep an eye out so that you can add to his list of majors.
Here, PokerStars took a look at his top five hands.

And as he said in the video in response to never folding, “When I play poker, I just try to win as much as I can.”
Dwan vs. Bob Safai
On Poker After Dark, Dwan found the river-over bet before it became popular. Heads up with Bob Safai, Dwan has little chance against Safai’s top pair top kicker. Dwan stays in, calling $12,000 on the turn and then, with the reveal of the river, the opportunities seem to have faded for Dwan. Then Safai checks with over $40K in the pot.

Then Dwan goes all in with nothing. Safai lets it go with the best hand to the delight of Dwan.
Dwan vs. Eli Elezra
Going against a seasoned pro is not easy, especially when you’re bluffing. Back on Poker After Dark, Dwan flops a flush draw, and calls after Eli Elezra bets $16K. The board paired again on the turn, and Elezra isn’t having it and ups his bet with his nines. Dwan than raises to $72K, a feisty move that finally gets Elezra to fold.
