David Cain Breaks World Record

In an update from the previous post, where information regarding the world record attempt was scarce, we can now confirm the record was well and truly beaten! The original record held was for playing heads up poker continuously for 72 hours, the record now stands at “around 74 hours” according to David.

With fears of David’s health looming, he decided he should pull out shortly after breaking the world record. The following are quotes taken from his site.

“During Wednesday afternoon I had something of a mental breakdown, it was extremely scary for me and even worse for friends and family who witnessed it.”

“I even had to be taught how to play poker-Literally everything from scratch. I complained that the blinds were not necessary and that there should be a flexible amount of community cards and that the game was too linear so should be played in a circle. Following that I felt like I was in a cage being taunted tortured and punished for a crime I didn’t commit.”

Congrats to David and his team for all of their hard work which paid off and resulted in an excellent world record being broken! We would also like to wish David “Alfa” Cain all the best in the future!
