Tollerene Gets Short

Level 25 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Stephen Chidwick defended his big blind against a raise by Alex Epstein and they checked the {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop. Chidwick bet the {2-Diamonds} turn for 240,000 and Epstein called before the {k-Clubs} river was checked. Chidwick tabled {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs} for two pair and won the pot.

Epstein got the chips back soon after when he raised the button to 200,000. Wasim Korkis and Ben Tollerene in the blinds came along and they checked the {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Spades} flop to Epstein, who bet 175,000 and forced two folds.

Tollerene dropped to around 450,000 and then raised the pot twice to build his short stack again.
