Tom Dwan wins largest poker in poker history

With American high stakes online pros unable to play online, many have taken up temporary residence in Macau. Players like Tom Dwan, Sam Trickett, Andrew Robl, and Alec Torelli to name a few. They are very secretive about who plays in the games because they don’t want to scare off the fish Chinese billionaires who frequent the games.

PokerPortal.asia’s Twitter reports that Tom Dwan has won the biggest hand in poker history, a whopping $3.8 Million US in the Macau high stakes poker games. The hand came when the blinds were HKD $10,000/$20,000 (USD $1300/$2600) at StarWorld Hotel’s Poker King Club in the Macau Big Game.

This week Viktor Blom aka Isildur1 scooped 2 scoop events at Pokerstars. I predict announcement of Pokerstars purchase of Full Tilt Poker to come tomorrow or Friday. With pledge to pay off US players within 90 days. Within those ninety days, I expect to hear a new Isildur1 VS Durrrr challenge.
