Ben Tollerene called pre-flop with [JsTs], then called Katz’s shove with [Ac6h]. Could Tollerene hit for the title?
The flop of [9s6cQh] was an extremely bad one for Katz apart from not hitting Tollerene’s hand directly and flipped Tollerene to 52% favorite.
The [Qd] on the turn was safe, but Katz would need to avoid a king, jack, ten or 8 to double through his opponent.
The [8s] came on the river to decide the BPO Main Event, with Ben Tollerene taking the title, winning £840,000 in the process.
Cary Katz, so unlucky to lose both those late all-ins, went from leader heads-up to out in two hands. An incredible run.
