Alec Torelli on 65K

[user57637]

Torelli from the USA has one of the biggest stacks in the room on 65,000. Torelli was keen to tell me his online name is "traheho" and we've discovered why.

In February he won $288,000 by winning the Million Dollar Tournament on Full Tilt.

It was a classic {A-Hearts}

vs

moment when a lady fell on the river to end the hopes of another player, a cruel beat sending him out of the tournament.

Tommy Pavlicek was the recipient of the good fortune, and the 15,000 he won in that pot sends up into the top few chip counts with 72,000.
