Some of Tom’s biggest tournament wins include: 447,844 $ in the 2014 Aussie Millions in Melbourne, 381,885 $ in the 2010 WSOP in Las Vegas, 324,244 $ in the 2007 WPT in Mashantucket, Connecticut, and 300,000 $ in 2011 on the TV show Poker After Dark.

Tom is an unusual player who’s well-known through online, live tournament and TV poker. He’s appeared on NBC's National Heads-Up Poker Championship and multiple seasons of Poker After Dark, Full Tilt Poker's Million Dollar Cash Game and GSN's High Stakes Poker. Tom also landed the world record for the largest pot ever won in a televised live poker game, when he won 1.1 million dollar in the Full Tilt Poker's Million Dollar Cash Game – beating his own previous record of 919,000 $.

With only 50 dollar to start, Tom began playing poker online at the age of 17 in 2004. He chose the moniker “durrrr”. After three years of practice, Tom ended 2007 up by 312,800 $ . By 2008, Tom was considered one of the top online grinders on the planet, with “lifetime” winnings (at the ripe old age of 21) estimated at 5.5 million dollar. By the end of 2010, he was up 3.3 million dollar just in that year alone – eclipsing his 2,661,781 $ in live tournament winnings to date.

Still living in his hometown of Edison New Jersey, Tom dropped out of Boston University to play poker and now travels the world to do it.

[German] Gefürchtet und schon populär, ist Tom Dwan ein oft im Fernsehen gesehener Poker Spieler, der bereits angefangen hat Turniere zu spielen, sobald er alt genug war ein Casino zu betreten. Einige von Tom´s größten Turnier-Gewinne sind: 447,844 $ im 2014 Aussie Millions Turnier in Melbourne, 381,885 $ im 2010 WSOP in Las Vegas, 324,244 $ im 2007 WPT in Mashantucket, Connecticut, und 300,000 $ im 2011 in der TV Show Poker After Dark.

Tom ist ein unüblicher Spieler der sich sehr gut in Online-, Live-Turnieren und TV Poker auskennt. Er erschien in der NBC's National Heads-Up Poker Weltmeisterschaft und mehrmals bei Poker After Dark, Full Tilt Poker's Million Dollar Cash Game und bei GSN's High Stakes Poker. Tom hat auch den Weltrekord für den größten Poker Pot überhaupt im Fernseh-Live-Poker gebrochen, als er 1,1 Millionen Dollar in einem Full Tilt Poker Million Dollar Cash Game gewonnen hat, womit er seinen vorherigen Rekord von 919,000 $, gebrochen hat.

Mit nur 50$ Startgeld hat Tom begonnen Online Poker zu spielen, als er noch 17 Jahre alt war, im Jahre 2014. Er wählte den Spitznamen "durrrr". Nach drei Jahren Training, ist Tom 2007 bei 312,800 $ angekommen. Im Jahre 2008 wurde er als einer der Top-Online-Poker-Spieler des Planeten anerkannt, mit Gesamt-Gewinnen von ungefähr 5,5 Millionen Dollar (im Alter von 21). Am Ende des Jahres 2010 hat er nur alleine in diesem Jahr 3.3 Millionen Dollar gewonnen - überschattet von seinen 2,661,781 $ Gewinnen in Live-Turnieren bis heute.

Immer noch in seiner Heimatstadt Edison New Jersey lebend, hat Tom die Boston Unversität verlassen um Poker zu spielen und jetzt reist er dafür um die ganze Welt.

Support SteemSports Ultimate Vote Betting … together we all can win!

How to Play

• Vote on the main post to enter the bet (main post rewards will also be added to the Stake Pool).

• Cast your Vote Bet on ONLY ONE outcome for which you bet on for the win (Multiple comment votes will be automatically disqualified by the script, unvote and revote counts as multiple votes and will be disqualified).

• After 24 hours, the post and related game comments payout to the pool; remember 25% voters rewards are deducted from the total post payout value first as per Steem curation rules. Voters are rewarded in standard fashion in proportion to their Steem Power holdings.

The Stake Pool:

• The remaining 75% of the total payout is paid out in 50% Steem Power and 50% in liquid currencies, the latter now varies in payout ratio after the new fork. To make the process less complicated, we have decided to use all paid out SBD to buy Steem in the internal market to create a grand total Steem Stake Pool.

• 30% of the Stake Pool will be retained, of which 15% will go to the writer/sports presenter of the post, and the 15% balance towards editing, development and advertising.

• 70% of the Stake Pool will be held until the event/game outcome is determined.

• Once the winning outcome is determined, we will execute a proprietary developed script that will divide and pay out the Steem rewards equally, using the Power Up method, to Mass Distribute SP to all participants that voted on the main post as the entrance fee as well as voted on the correct comment representing the winning outcome.

• Only participants with a Reputation of 35 or more will qualify to earn SP rewards, but non-qualifiers can still vote and comment in support of the redistribution initiative.

• Entry cut-off time is the earlier of the post payout or the start of the event.

• @steemsports in the unlikely event that when the Stake Pool is divided up between the winners and the nomenclature resolution goes below the third decimal place (example: 0.0001), then Steem decimal restrictions won’t allow a payout and the pool will carry over to the next game.

• Please vote responsibly :).
