You don't know durrrr (Dwan) and that's a hand you can hit bigtime (as proven) and get paid. Likely he was behind but durrrr isn't your traditional NL player and I see no fault in the way he plays seeing this flop. He can't be screwed, you think he doesn't know someone could be on AK in front of him? He's not committing his chips just because he flops a king and has top pair.

Postflop there's no hand you're worried about except a set, and even then you have outs. I'd bet Dwan knew Barry's on AA or KK, really all he could be on with AA being more probably since durrrr had a king. Given that info he also knows it's a dead coinflip at worst and if it's a coinflip who cares if all the money goes in. Shove all your money in, make the other guy call first, then if he does so be it, you're still 50/50.
