Pretty sure Ferguson and Gordon are both regarded as two of the best high stakes NL HU players in the world, so yeah, ldo they would crush. That's why you've never ever seen them play in a high stakes NL HU match before online, they just can't get any action.

Isn't it like 17-18 buyins now during the challenge so far?...not counting what jungleman won from him before the challenge? Maybe I'm wrong.

Thought it was strange that when Dwan got felted towards the end, his auto re-load would be for weird amount (14502 or 21521, etc.).

The only way that occurs is if that is all the money you have left on FTP. Otherwise, auto re-loads are set to even dollar amounts based on BBs.

So Dwan seems to have busted his current FTP roll...

Not doubting you, but where is this evidence of Dwan talking s hit beforehand? I have not heard about this.

Was he joking when he was talking trash, or was he serious?

What are the chances durrrr buys out of this after 1 or 2 more sesh's like this one?

I doubt he'd buy out no matter how bad he runs/ gets owned, but this challenge could kick his ass pretty hard.

tbh i think Gus would have a bigger edge than Ferguson and Gordon combined. Gus is an expert at making loose-aggressive calls and that's really the only way to combat such heavy aggression

i think he was just joking, there was like 2 sentence fragments of trash talk right after jungle sent the 500k to ivey.
