Winter Doubles Through Tollerene in Dramatic Runout

Brett Slezak

Level 11 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Ben Tollerene opened the hijack to 105,000 before Sean Winter jammed for 775,000 from the small blind, and Tollerene snapped it off.

Sean Winter: A♥9♥ All in
Ben Tollerene: J♠J♥

Winter was in rough shape but had an overcard. The J♦10♦7♦ flop gave Tollerene top set and Winter picked up a gutter.

No waiting was required on the 8♣ turn as Winter made his straight. The A♦ river failed to fill up Tollerene as neither player held a diamond, and Winter collected the full double.

Level 11 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Leonard Maue opened to 105,000 in early position and was called by Jesse Lonis and Seth Davies in position. Alexandros Theologis shoved all in for 1,105,000 from the blinds and Maue reshoved all in, forcing Lonis and Davies out of the pot.

Alexandros Theologis: J♠J♥ All in
Leonard Maue: 9♥9♦

Maue was already visibly frustrated after seeing the cards and started cheering for a nine. The flop of K♥8♦3♦ changed nothing and the J♣ landed on the turn.

"Now put a nine," Theologis joked with Maue already drawing dead to the 3♠ on the river.

Alexandros Theologis	2,500,000 1,200,000	1,200,000

The action folded to Alex Foxen in the small blind who raised to 175,000. In the big blind, Jesse Lonis three-bet to 700,000. Foxen announced a four-bet to 2,000,000, Lonis jammed for 2,215,000, and Foxen called.

Jesse Lonis: A♣K♥ All in
Alex Foxen: A♥J♣

Lonis was primed for the double with the dominating ace on the 10♦5♣3♣ flop. Nothing changed on the 8♣10♥ runout as the tens with ace-king-high of Lonis was best for the full double.

On the 4♠ river, Chidwick checked once again to Mullur who jammed for 590,000 effective as the slightly covering stack, and Chidwick called all-in.

Stephen Chidwick: Q♥5♣ All in
Samuel Mullur: A♣7♠

Mullur was bluffing with the naked ace of clubs as Chidwick made the right call with top pair weak kicker to double, as Mullur is left with just over two blinds.

Level 11 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Sean Perry raised it up from early position and Santhosh Suvarna shoved all in for 345,000 on the button. Adrian Mateos just flat-called in the big blind and Perry came along as well.

The flop came K♠6♣5♣ and both players checked to the 7♣ on the turn. Mateos led out with a bet of 250,000 and Perry called to create a side pot. The 5♠ paired the board on the river and Mateos led out with another bet of 225,000. Perry folded this time and Mateos was awarded the side pot.

Mateos turned over A♣K♣ for a flush while Suvarna was left with K♦Q♠. Mateos was also shipped the main pot and the defending champion was eliminated for the second time this year.
