    Default Will Tom ‘durrrr’ Dwan be the next member of Team Full Tilt?


    Without taking a huge leap, it seems that there have been some preliminary talks with ‘durrrr’ about becoming the next Full Tilt Team member. The implications come from a recent interview Howard Lederer gave to ‘Inside Deal’. When asked why ‘durrr’ is not a member of Team Full Tilt, Lederer stated:

    "I'm sure that Full Tilt would love to have him… I think it’s just a matter of Full Tilt and Durrrr working it out, and working out a fair price.”

    Signing ‘durrrr’ would likely be the most expensive sponsorship deal Full Tilt has given out thus far, but the online poker prodigy is probably the one player in the game who could command such a deal. No other front-line player –Patrik Antonius, Daniel Negreanu, Phil Ivey, Phil Hellmuth-- is an online poker player first: Most spend most of their time in live games.

    Tom Dwan, better known as ‘durrrr’ plays in the highest stakes cash games online, and is widely regarded as one of the best poker players in the world –despite being only 23 years old. Dwan is also one of the most popular poker players in the game today, with players searching Internet sites to find out about his latest exploits.

    I have a friend we play live with and he owns the same vacant expression as durrr when we play.

    Unfortunatly he's nowhere near as good.

    I think Durrr is an awsome talent, I think people who are comparing him to stuey ungar are a bit premature, but the guy is 23 and who knows just how good he will become given a few years. Imo destined to be a legend, or a flash in the pan. Who knows? Just wouldnt like to be at his table.
