We've seen glimpses of Tom "durrrr" Dwan's brilliance in previous sessions of the durrrr Challenge.

But today he put on a truly dominating performance. In the span of approximately three hours, Dwan pulverized veteran pro Patrik Antonius for $206,757.

The session, which was number four in the Challenge for those keeping track at home, saw Dwan peak at +$229,814 before leveling off a bit as the session ended at hand number 3,952.

Dwan now has the overall lead in the Challenge by $149,978.

In the early stages of the session there was talk of postponing it so Antonius and Dwan could play the $500/$1,000 games running, but Antonius was "stuck" so they decided to stick to regular old $200/$400.

Tom "durrrr" Dwan and Patrik Antonius may be grabbing all the headlines as the ultimate heads-up match continues.

But Gus Hansen and Hac "trex313" Dang have been writing their own 1v1 story. As of 6 p.m. ET, Hansen and Dang are in the midst of a massive $500/$1,000 PLO battle spread over Full Tilt tables Hansen Knockout and Hansen Hideout. Hansen appears to be down in the session while Dang has raked several pots worth over $100,000. In fact out of 10 $100,000+ pots that have been played between the two of them today, Dang has won eight.
