Dwan’s big score came when he met fellow high stakes player Patrik Antonius for a quick session.  And this was the true definition of a quick session since the pair only played for a total of 9 minutes.  The two played 61 poker hands in their heads-up contest, which was enough time for Dwan to take $230,710 from …
