Tollerene Doubles His Starting Stack
Level 3
: 200/400, 50 ante
We saw online poker star Ben Tollerene sitting with a mountain of chips — nearly 100,000 in fact — and he was kind enough to tell us how he got them.
It happened when his opponent raised to 1,100 from the button and Tollerene three-bet to 3,200 from the big blind. The button then four-bet to 8,000, Tollerene moved all in, and his opponent called off.
Tollerene: 
Opponent: 
It was a flip, and Tollerene fell behind on the 
flop. Fortunately for him, he was saved when the dealer burned and turned the 
. The 
river failed to change a thing, and Tollerene sent his opponent to the rail while being pushed the biggest pot of the tournament through three levels.
