I think Ivey is the most likely candidate, but I think he would want a bigger bet (Or at least, he would get a load of side bets going).
I think durrrr is probably one of the best out there at the moment (although not as good as Phil Galfond it would seem) but he is a lucky twat and has a really smackable face. He reminds me of the weedy kid at school who was best mates with the hardest kid, who would go round running his mouth off knowing nobody dare touch him.
Anyway I digress, should have an interesting 'bubble' dynamic when it gets towards the last 10,000 hands if one player is marginally ahead.

Yeah he's good but to offer 2/1 is ridiculously good value for any of the big pro's out there....it is only a publicity stunt tho aint it

I’m making this heads-up challenge to the world. Anyone can accept. Four tables, minimum of $200/$400, and I’ll put up $1.5 million to their $500,000. We play 50,000 hands minimum and if they end up a dollar after rake they keep the side money or whatever. So basically, if you and I played and you won a dollar, you would get my $1.5 million and if I won a dollar I would win your $500,000.

You can't tell me that, I'm a complete durrr fan boy.
Ivey pwns live poker and has all kinds of buisness interests and TV work aswell as pwning high stakes online. No doubt he's an all round bad ass.
This contest isn't about being an all-round bad ass though, it's about 50,000 hands of Mr. Dwan's speciality.
It's multi-tabling $200/$400, yo he's gonna win yo

didnt read that right-If Antonius and Durr were to meet I'd take Antonius if offered 3/1 on the side action every day of the week
