Durrrr’s best game is No limit holdem, but he also plays a lot of pot limit omaha, because he says most players are clueless in that game. He’s also big into multi-tabling, usually running 8 or more tables at once across multiple poker sites.

According to Sbrugby, A regular opponent of Durrrr’s, Durrrr plays his hands strongly based on reads. He’ll fold the second nuts if he thinks he’s beat, but at the same time Durrrr won’t hesitate to call with nearly any two cards if he feels he’s ahead.
