Tollerene Tolerates Terrible River
![[user253757]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
After the unusual situation involving his missing stack was resolved, online sicko Ben Tollerene has patiently put those chips to use, but an opponent's suckout in what was a great spot for Tollerene just cost him a chunk of change.
We caught the action with the board reading 
, and Tollerene facing a slightly less than pot-sized bet of 3,200, which he eventually called after a minute of thought.
On the 
river, both players tapped the table, and Tollerene quickly announced "jack-six" for two pair.
"I got lucky..." his opponent said sheepishly, while turning over the 
for a rivered Broadway straight. He had been running a substandard two pair against Tollerene's jacks and sixes, but found gin on fifth street.
Tollerene could only squint at the board while squeezing his cards a bit tighter, before rearranging the player's four cards to show how badly he was beaten on the turn.
"This hand was looking really good for me right here," he said, while moving the opponent's to align with their counterparts on the board.
Despite the bad beat, Tollerene's smile never faded, and he appears to truly enjoy competing here at the WSOP after crushing the world's elite online players for the last few years.
