Hindin-berg Crashing

Dan Hindin seems to have met his nemesis in Roberto Romanello -- the latter has just now doubled through the former for a second time, leaving Hindin rather short.

Romanello raised his small blind, and Hindin called in the big. They saw a flop.

Flop: {10-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs}

Romanello check-called 20,000 from Hindin. Onwards.

Turn: {A-Spades}

Romanello checked again, adn this time Hindin bet 40,000. Back to Romanello -- and he moved in for 80,000 total.

"Wow, how much is that?" asked Hindin, suddenly confused. "Do you have king-nine of clubs?" Romanello feigned surprise. "There are three clubs on the board?" It almost fooled us. Not quite, but almost. Hindin was told the relevant number. "So, I'd be calling 40,000 to win 140,000..."

He called.

Romanello: not quite the straight flush, but the made flush with a redraw to the straight flush
Hindin: {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} for two pair

River: {3-Spades}

Romanello is now firmly back in contention on around 180,000, while Hindin drops right down to less than 90,000.
