Poker pro Tom Dwan recently cut ties with Full Tilt Poker and the breakup does not appear, at least on the surface, to have been amicable.

F5Poker.com suggests there could be more coming out real soon:

A tired, and more mature looking Tom Dwan, takes a few minutes before he gets some rest to check in with our pal Thomas Keeling (who is once again doing fantastic work for Bluff) to talk about how his cash game and tournament sessions are going. He also talks a little about why he hasn’t resumed the drawn out Durrrr Challenge with Dan “Jungleman” Cates.

Apparently there is a “big issue” over at Full Tilt Poker, the former sponsor of the high stakes pro, and it’s one that Dwan is looking to address soon. Keeling tries to be respectful and not press too hard but it sounds like it has something to do with play on the site as hand histories are referenced briefly and he says that Jungleman, while publicly calling out Dwan time and time again, knows of Dwan’s issue.

Dwan was dropped from the Full Tilt Poker stable just days before Christmas.

Full Tilt Poker issued this statement at the time:

“Full Tilt Poker and Tom Dwan have agreed to part ways following the recent expiration of Dwan’s contract,” said a Full Tilt Poker spokesperson.
“To have one of the most respected names in poker on our team has been a great pleasure. We will continue to watch Tom at the tables and wish him every success in the future.”
