Huge Call for Durrrr

Level 1 : 50/75, 0 ante

On a board reading {J-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{2-Diamonds} Tom Dwan bet out 2,550 with about 3,000 in the pot. His opponent raised him, making it 11,500 total. Dwan tanked for about three minutes.

Eventually, Dwan made the call, flipping up {Q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, for merely top pair. His opponent tabled {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a busted straight draw, and Durrrr was able to scoop the pot, bringing him up over 28,000.
