Sometimes the optimal strategy against a top player is to play big pot poker. The more smaller pots played the greater chance the better player has to negate variance.
This may be the line Talal Shakerchi is taking against Tom Dwan. Dwan raised to 1,000 then called when Shakerchi three-bet to 3,400. The flop came 
and Shakerchi fired 5,500 into the middle. Dwan folded.
