Dwan Takes One Down

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante
Tom Dwan (from Event #2)
Tom Dwan (from Event #2)

A player opened to 400 from middle position, and the action folded to Tom "Durrrr" Dwan who defended his big blind. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, Dwan checked, and his opponent continued for 600. Durrrr studied him momentarily before calling. Both players checked after the {2-Hearts} turned, but when the {q-Hearts} paired the board on the river Dwan led out for 1,650. His opponent tank-mucked, and Dwan pulled in the pot.
