The Luck of the Welsh/Italian

Roberto Romanello raised to 350 in early position, only for another player to make it 1,000 to go from mid position. It folded back around to Romanello, who called.

They saw a {J-Hearts}

flop, which Romanello checked. His opponent bet a cool 5,000 - over twice the pot, and over a quarter of his remaining stack. Back to Romanello, and after a pause and a rather theatrical sigh, he raised to 27,000 to cover. His opponent called all in for his last 13,500, and they flipped the cards.

Mr. Opponent: {K-Spades}

for an overpair
Romanello: {6-Hearts}

for a flush

Turn: {2-Spades}

River:

Once the newly-busted unfortunate had got up and collected his things, Romanello quietly thanked the giggling dealer. Must be nice.

Romanello is up to 50,000.
