Piqué Eliminated by Romero

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
Gerard Piqué
Gerard Piqué

Gerard Piqué was the first player to bust and re-enter, and he has subsequently become the first player to bust on his second bullet. On the three-way flop of {J-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}, Piqué checked out of the big blind and James Romero bet 1,000 from the under-the-gun position. Piotr Nurzynski called on the button and Piqué called, too.

The {8-Clubs} on the turn was checked by all three players and Piqué then moved all in for around 16,000 on the {6-Diamonds} river. Romero used one time bank and called, Nurzynski folded.

Pique tabled {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Romero had that beat with {A-Spades}{J-Clubs} to send the Spanish football star to the rail.
