Beware the durrrr Check-Raise

Tom Dwan checked a {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop, and the player next to act bet 1,825. Two more folded, and Dwan made the call. Both of them checked the {5-Hearts} turn, and Dwan checked once more after the {q-Hearts} put a fourth heart on the board. His opponent bet 3,250, and durrrr check-raised the river to 10,000 even. He got a call and showed {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the nut flush. His opponent didn't have a boat to beat it, so Dwan took the pot and moved back to 32,725.
