Bruno Portaro
Bruno Portaro is down to half of his stack after running into a rivered straight.

According to Portaro he took a jack high flop with one heart on it, while holding {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Portaro bet every street, with the turn {k-Hearts} giving him a flush draw. His opponent flat called down to the river {10-Diamonds} where he raised Portaro's river bet. Portaro made the call only to see his opponent roll over {A-?}{q-?} for a rivered straight.

Portaro has about 9,500 chips at the moment.
