TonyTheToenailcollector: Up $1M+ in MTTs, Down a Lot in Cash Games

We don’t know exactly who TonyTheToenailcollector is. It’s a little like the Batman story. He could be your neighbor. He could be an investment banker. We don’t know.

But we do know he’s definitely not a one-hit-wonder.

After winning The One with its $5M GTD and pocketing a million dollars, he didn’t take a break.

Within 30 days of winning $1,000,000, he kept collecting victories:

• $93,940 for 1st in the $5,200 High Roller (Oct 25th)
• $74,432 for 1st in the $1,050 Sunday Grand (Nov 1st)
• $18,070 for 2nd in the $530 Sunday Reload (Nov 1st)
• $4,225 for 4th in the PLO High Roller (Nov 1st)

Unless this is one of the greatest tournament sunruns the world has seen, Tony’s got skill.

But we also saw another side of Tony immediately after he won The One.

Tony’s Love for High-Stakes Cash Games

TonyTheToenailcollector also enjoys Pot Limit Omaha when he’s not running deep in MTTs.

Right after his account had an extra million dollars in it, we saw him at the $25/$50 tables.

He immediately lost $77,341.

WillJaffe gave a little backstory:

“TonyTheToenailcollector was a reg at 5-10 and 10-20 PLO before winning The One for a million dollars. Naturally he took a shot at higher stakes and it didn’t go well 😬”

But some Twitter users didn’t agree, and said he played higher.

So Tony plays it all, except heads-up, perhaps.

BobbyJames reacted to some hand replays from a recent session and at the end said, “Don’t make me do this again. If you like the video, don’t like it. Don’t like it. I don’t want to do this one again.”

Here are two of the hands that made him feel like that.

At $50/$100:

• RicFlair raises to $100
• NBIS90 3-bets to $450
• TonyTheToenailcollector 4-bets 50 $1,550
• DonOfDonks calls
• RicFlair 5-bets to $6,650
• NBIS90 6-bets to $23,050
• TonyTheToenailcollector calls
• DonOfDonks folds

NBIS90 puts the rest in on the flop…. And Tony calls.

“Huh? Huh? Did he just call off 12k on the flop here with a six?”

There’s pretty much a 0% chance that Tony could ever be good. So he’s calling because there’s already so much in the pot that drawing to hit another 6 is worth it?

Hand #2 at $50/$100:

• Manifestking pots it
• TonyTheToenailcollector and DonOfDonks both call

“All right, a couple of legends in here: DonOfDonks, Manifestking, Dogecoin4life, back with backwoodbob. Check seems pretty appropriate. Still call versus pot here with a gutshot, queen-high flush draw, and a gutshot. Okay.”

• Manifestking pots it on the turn
• TonyTheToenailcollector repops it to $8,000
• DonOfDonks shoves for his $13,169
• Both other players get it in

“Yeah, I don’t know about jamming. This seems wide, man. You’ve only got 63 up top. And at the bottom you ain’t got much. You got a six-high flush draw. This seems like a humongous punt.”

• Manifestking: Nut full house on top board
• DonOfDonks: Straight on bottom board
• TonyTheToenailcollector: Straight on top board and pair of threes on bottom board

“Let’s just go back to this turn, guys. So on the flop, I can get on board with a call. This is complete dust on the turn here, by the way. Putting any money in on the turn here is suicidal. Yeah, that was dust. TonyTheDustnail.”

Tony’s willingness to go with mediocre hands had Bobby stressed by the end of the video.

Looking back on an over $200,000 loss for the session, Bobby said, “Variance is a thing, but that was not variance.”

So far, TonyTheToenailCollector is still anonymous, and it doesn’t seem like he accepted CoinPoker’s offer for an interview after his win in The One.

We know he’s a tournament crusher.

We know he’s a regular at PLO5 tables, but maybe not a “reg” in the classic sense.

We know other high-rollers must be licking their lips when he takes a seat.

According to a tracker, Tony is down about $300,000 in a very short amount of time. These stats only go back to October 12, which only lets us guess how much more he’s down by now.
