David Benyamine has become the latest poker player to accept Tom 'Durrr' Dwan's heads-up challenge.
The World Series of Poker and World Poker Tour titlist, who is known as one of the world's best high stakes competitors, joined Dwan's opponent list - which includes Phil Ivey and Patrik Antonius - last week.
In accordance with the rules laid out by Dwan when he made the challenge, the two should meet in a one-on-on game, played over four internet tables, for at least 50,000 hands.
Benyamine will need to spend $500,000 to buy into the game, but stands to win $1.5 million should he take victory.
This is not a likely result, however, according to a poll about the match-up on Bluff Magazine's messageboard.
Approximately 40 percent of voters believed Durrr will beat Benyamine but lose to Ivey, while 19 percent expect him to defeat both.
Meanwhile, five percent expect Ivey to lose and Benyamine to win and 25 percent anticipate triumphs for the two challengers.
Antonius was not included in the online survey.
