Portaro Building Into Six Figures

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Back in Australia, Bruno Portaro is known as somewhat of a loose cannon. Not because he's a perceived donkey or anything of that nature, but just that Portaro likes to have fun when he plays poker by mixing it up and playing an array of hands.

Although Portaro has no results on this side of the Pacific Ocean, he has amassed over AU$210,000 in lifetime earnings from 31 cashes although the majority of his time is spent on the cash game tables.

With Portaro traveling out to Las Vegas for the last few years to play the WSOP, he spends time with his family and enjoys the sights, but always makes time to play the Main Event.

Today, Portaro chipped up early, and after getting moved from his starting table, he proceeded to flop top set holding {J-}{J-}. His opponent barreled into him, and when Portaro raised the river he couldn't find a call from his opponent. Still, he consequently raked in the pot, sending his count over the 100,000-chip mark.
