"Show one," Khalifa requested. "Just one."
Olofsson declined, sliding his cards facedown into the muck.
"I will play only with you now," Khalifa told him. "Don't worry."

Roberto Romanello's long, patient grind has finally paid off; the Welshman has just doubled to 102,000.
Athanasios Fergiatakis opened in late position, Romanello was next to act and he three-bet and in a flurry of action Fergiatakis had put Romanello all in and had been called.
Fergiatakis: 
Romanello:
