Trueteller Skips Bear, Plays High-Stakes at Triton Series


Trueteller's appearance at the Triton Series in Jeju has sparked excitement and memes. The high-stakes player did not bring his pet bear to the $200k invitational but participated in intense cash games.

Trueteller and Nanonoko had a notable exchange in 2012 during a high-stakes game where Trueteller mentioned a bear around his house. This exchange has become a legendary meme in the poker community, often referenced by commentators like Randy Lew.

Trueteller played in a high-stakes cash game with stakes of $1,000/$1,000/$2,000 and multipliers of 2/4/5. The game included players like Victor Malinovsky, Elton Tsang, Kaihan Mokri, and Wang Ye. Trueteller attempted to arrange a match with Ossi Kettola but was unsuccessful.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
