Ivey vs Durrrr in one of the best online heads up battles ever

On Saturday March 21st, Phil Ivey and Tom 'durrrr' Dwan had a Heads Up Pot Limit Omaha battle of epic proportions on FTP. Durrrr was way ahead at one point by over half a million dollars but the battle ended with Ivey being up $179,000. Don't feel bad for durrrr, he had a massive mixed games session at the same time and ended up with a profit of over 1/2 million on the day.

Interesting moment:
Phil Ivey quit one table while durrrr was sitting with a $1 million stack. As durrrr was about to leave the table Ivey sends him this message in chat:

Phil Ivey: put that million back in front of u
durrrr: o ok thought u wer done there
Phil Ivey: i will be back over there in a sec

If you haven't watched the nose bleed games on FTP, we recommend you spend a little time watching. Some sessions are better then watching High Stakes Poker.

Do you bother reading the posts or do you just respond? This is the 2nd post today that you've posted that makes no sense.

Ivey Won.

One more post that makes no sense and I will ban you from the posting contest.

This has nothing to do with language. It's obvious you're trying to win the posting contest and I'm trying to tell you that if you continue to make meaningless posts that you won't win.

I appreciate you trying to be part of the forum and I encourage you to post. I'm just saying, read and understand before you post and make it meaningful.

Also feel free to post away in our Dutch section, you can write about all your poker playing, etc there. We welcome posting in that section.
