Re Hand 5: Just another run-of-the-mill two-outer.
Re "durrrr":
There’s a 20-year-old college dropout living in Texas who in less than 18 months has become one of the biggest cash game players the world has ever seen. Tom Dwan, screen name “durrrr”, is said to have made over $2,000,000 playing the highest stakes poker the internet has to offer.

There's another run-of-the-mill beat between the same two players at:

Seat 1: Son-in-Law (small blind) showed [5c 4c] and won ($101,863.50) with a straight, Eight high. Seat 2: durrrr (big blind) showed [As Ac] and lost with a pair of Aces

Was railing him a few days ago and some other guy railing made a comment that summed it up perfectly. Durr has just won a pot of about $60k. "You're 20, and you just made more in one hand of poker than I make in a year"He's up $470k at NLHE and down $330k at PLO for the month on Full Tilt; and down $220k on Prima. So, in all, he's down $80k in a month - more than most earn in a year!
Life has its little ups and downs.
