Patrik Antonius and Tom Dwan logged some more hands in the "durrrr" challenge on Sunday. By the end of the session, Patrik's lead in the challenge had widened to approximately $488k.

According to Full Tilt Poker, Dwan and Antonius have played 13,246 of the required 50,000 hands in the challenge.

Antonius is currently up $488,133, which I believe is the biggest lead that either player has had in the challenge.

Dwan has won more hands in the challenge (6,992 compared to 6,211 for Antonius), however Antonius has won more per hand ($2,322.58 vs $1,993.16).

The two players have wagered a total of $81.2 million dollars over a total of 23 sessions so far.

Here is a recap of the two biggest pots from Sunday's session:

1. $174k pot for Dwan.
