According to HighStakesDB.com, a site responsible for tracking high stakes online poker action Tom earned $312,000 in 2007 before going on a rich vein of form banking winnings of $5,500,000 in 2008.
Nicknamed “Durrr”, Tom’s online poker career gives perhaps no better example of the highs and lows of no-limit heads up poker. Since 2009, Durrr has recoded some of the largest online wins reported earning $1,600,000 in as little as a couple of hours. In contrast he was on the wrong end of the largest winning run in history of online poker losing $5,000,000 to a Swedish player by the name of Isildur1. By the end of 2010 the ups and downs worked out in Toms favour allowing leaving him with a further $3,300,000.
While Durrr has numerous cash finishes in various tournaments from around the world he has yet to win one, he does however hold the current world record for the largest pot won in a live recorded game, a mere $1,100,000.
Tom is a Full Tilt Poker pro and while he is now a regular on the live poker circuit, his first passion online poker remains the place where he spends most of his time and earns the majority of his bounty.
