With the board reading {10-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs}{K-Spades}{8-Clubs}, Robert Georato got the rest of his stack all in against Roberto Romanello. Georato had {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a turned pair of kings, but was behind Romanello's {A-Spades}{7-Spades} for the ace-high flush.

Romanello will be taking a stack of 530,000 with him to tomorrow's final table.

Upon winning he asked us to give a message to his family who will be reading this when they wake up in the morning. Romanello wants to tell his family that they may have to pack their bags soon in the event he makes it to the bracelet ceremony that follows this event.
