Tom Dwan is the player to whom luckexpress10’s fate seems linked in more than one ways

Dwan was the one responsible for almost busting luckexpress10’s online bankroll on one occasion, but he is also the man to whom Marigliano’s possibly biggest live poker achievement is tied.

In the Full Tilt Durrrr Live $1 million challenge he took on two Dwan and promptly relieved the New Jersey Wonderkid of $250k, winning the challenge. The action began with Dwan building up a lead over his opponent. As long as the two of them stuck to NL Holdem, Dwan was OK. They soon switched to PL Omaha though, and that’s when things started heading south for the American. The Italian took over the lead in the final stretch, and eventually managed to hold on to a $22,500 margin, which was enough to give him the win and the $500k pot. Dwan had won 55% of the pots, but with all that, Marigliano was the one who managed to pull away on account of his bigger pots.
