Tom “durrrr” Dwan made a rare appearance at a live poker tournament this weekend when he entered a HK$500,000 Super High Roller event, part of the 2017 Macau Billionaire Poker (MBP) Spring Challenge at the Babylon Casino in Macau.
The huge buy-in, the equivalent of US$64,400, was paid by 12 players, including Dwan, the German high-stakes specialist Philipp “philbort” Gruissem and the eventual champion Mikita Badziakouski.
Badziakouski, of Belarus, found himself heads up against Dwan for the title and a first-place prize in the region of US$420,000.
