Tom DwanTom “durrrr” Dwan and Dan “jungleman12” Cates resumed the Durrrr Challenge on Tuesday morning after about a week-long break.

The two nosebleed regulars sat down at the virtual on Full Tilt Poker for some action at $200-$400 no-limit hold’em.

The exchange was brief, as the duo only logged about 350 hands in less than an hour. However, Cates managed to increase his lead by more than $100,000 and currently sits out in front $755,000 after slightly more than 10,000 hands.

Other winners of the past week include Gus Hansen, who won more than $200,000 this past weekend, David Benefield, who is recovering from a recent downswing, and Ben “Sauce1234” Sulsky who took Scott “UrNotINdanger2” Palmer for about $250,000 a couple days ago.

One of the biggest stories in the online world over the past seven days has been the creation of the new $3,000-$6,000 limit hold’em table, per the request of fixed-limit specialist IHateJuice.
