Das Monsterpotten

Ben Tollerene opened for 10,000 and Dylan Thomassie called. The flop came {5-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {3-Clubs} and Tollerene bet 12,000. Thomassie raised to 29,500 and Tollerene called. The turn came {9-Diamonds}, Tollerene checked and Thomassie bet 48,500. Tollerene called and the river fell {6-Spades}. Tollerene checked and Thomassie slid out 125,000. Tollerene took a minute and called - creating what had to be the biggest pot of the tournament so far.

Thomassie tabled {10-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} for a ten high straight and Tollerene looked sick as he mucked his hand. Thomassie is the new chipleader of the tournament.
