Alec Torelli Goes Back-to-Back at Bellagio

In poker, the odds of anyone winning back-to-back big-buy-in tournaments are slim to none. On Monday, Oct. 6, Alec "traheho" Torelli accomplished just that, winning both event No. 4 and event No. 5 of Bellagio's Festa al Lago Classic. Amazingly enough, Torelli beat former WPT champion Jonathan "FieryJustice" Little both times heads-up to claim his bracelets. To top it all off, Amnon Filippi managed to finish sixth in both tournaments, as well.

Thats crazy that 1,2,6 were the same in the last two events. Traheho went back to back in 2 FTOPS events also. It's about time FTP made him a red.
