Romanello Busto

Roberto Romanello
Roberto Romanello

Sensing a spot to short-stack-shove in the big blind when small blind Jens Weigel was the only player left in the hand preflop, Roberto Romanello found himself called and all-in with {8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} vs. {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}.

There was silence on the {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop, and also when Romanello's live rag hit on the {4-Diamonds} turn. When the {2-Hearts} river completed Weigel's straight, Romanello missed it, saying, "That's how you win tournaments."

When he turned to give Weigel a gentlemanly 'hard luck' handshake, Weigel said, "I won," and collected his 230,000 stack while Romanello admitted, "I'm dreaming! Good luck gents."
