Paul Phua is a great business man and a regular at the biggest poker games the world has to offer.
After achieving success as a poker player, he is now launching his own poker training site, named PaulPhuaPoker and Tom “durrrr” Dwan is the Face of his marketing efforts.
Paul Phua Poker
The project actualy started a year ago with Phua posting some quality training material on his YouTube channel.
Even than, Tom Dwan was already taking part in some of the videos. Phua later decided to delete the content.
All the deleted content along with some new videos is now available again, as part of Phuas new training site at www.paulphuapoker.com and his Youtube channel.
There are also a video series called “In Conversation” that Phua and Dwan are a part of.
The site is said to help you improve your poker game and teach winning strategies. The claims are backed by the likes of Tom Dwan and Phil Ivey.
“Paul Phua is probably the best non-pro I’ve ever played poker against. And you can call him a “non-pro” only because he’s such a successful businessman too. He’s certainly better — maybe much better — than a large percentage of professional players,” said Ivey.
The arrest of Paul Phua
Last year, Phua was charged with operating illegal online sports betting operation out of Caesars Palace in Las Vegas during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
He was sentenced to 10 months under house arrest, which he spent at his friends house in Las Vegas. He also had to pay a $2 million bail and his $48 million Gulfstream jet was taken as collateral.
When FBI claimed he was a high-ranking member of the Chinese Triads , he responded with saying: “I am an investor, I’m a gambler, and I’m a risk taker.” He also insisted that the allegations ware not true.
Was Tom “durrrr” Dwan kidnapped?
After parting ways with Full Tilt Poker, Tom “durrrr” Dwan disappeared from the public view.
In addition to falling out with Full Tilt, Dwan is also said to have some unfinished business with Dan “Jungleman12” Cates.
After seeing him in Macau more and more, rumors started to circulate in the online poker community.
The rumors included things like Dwan being kidnapped or even that he is a part of Chinese Triads.
Lets take a look at what Doug Polk has to say about it:

Dwan resurfaced to the public when Paul Phua was arrested, which only fueled the rumor mills.
