Ben "Ben86" Tollerene Wins Online Poker's Largest Buy-In Tournament

There's been plenty to talk about in the online poker world lately with the 2015 PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) in full effect, but Monday afternoon held a special place amongst all the happenings.

The $51,000 Super High Roller event resumed play at 12:30 p.m. ET with the final eight players returning to battle through the bubble and onward to the $851,000 top prize. When it was all said and done, Ben "Ben86" Tollerene was awarded the title following a three-way deal with Jose "Cejakas14" Angel Latorre and Nikita "fish2013" Bodyakovskiy.
