Watching the latest “Poker After Dark” episodes of the Helmuth Bash Cash Game, makes you wonder who is the better cash game player. Phil Helmuth and Tom “Durrr” Dwan face each other a few times, Bob Safai has a go and then Phil Laak seems to be all over the place.
Whenever Dwan is at the table, he seems to rattle the players a bit and they don’t play normal poker – that’s because Dwan has an ultra aggressive style that is often not out of a poker strategy book. Laak plays a few crazy hands and does things that he wouldn’t normally do, he gets real lucky to take a hand from Dwan with bottom pair. Even he admits that he is a Donkey in this game!
One thing about “Durrrr” is that despite his aggressive style, he still reads the situation very well. The way he gets out of a hand against Helmuth, who flops a flush, makes you realize he is very aware. Perhaps Helmuth’s bet on the turn was too high and he could have waited until the river to bet, but still the way Dwan just got out immediately was impressive! Read any good casino winning strategies and they will always tell you to be aware of your situation, to hold or fold where necessary.

My main man Phil Hellmuth and online poker genius Tom “Durrr” Dwan play a huge hand in which I believe Durrr was calling when a blank hit the river (yet we’ll never know). The diamond was too dangerous, and Phil kind of got lucky there.
Props to both players though, great hand!

I really feel terrible looking at this footage. Stuey looks happy but at this point in his life he was already so far down the drain the idle hope Gabe Kaplan was trying to get into his head in the emotional interview afterwards obviously hardly existed…
Stuey probably was the most amazing Gin Rummy player ever, most likely one of the best poker players ever, and surely one of the least in-control high rollers Vegas has ever seen…
It’s good to see Stuey hasn’t been forgotten — but it’s sad to realize there’s hardly any footage of him in is heydays…
