Dwyer can be found on the top in any of the tournaments around the world, but he never managed to win a PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker title.

The champion has over $30 million in live winnings and over $6 million in online sphere.

The event attracted a total of 89 entries for a buy-in of $25k which created a prize pool of $2.18 million. The final day began with Nemeth in chip lead with 10 remaining survivors and Dwyer was short stacked. It was Ben Sulsky aka Sauce123’ who bubbled the final table. Soon after the dismissal of Chun Lei Zhou aka ‘SamRostan’ in third place, heads-up got underway. The event ended when Nemeth’s Ace King failed to dominate Dwyer’s King Ten and the latter rivered a ten to secure the title!
