Huang Doubles Through Romero

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Wei Huang
Wei Huang

In the last hand before the break, James Romero got value off Jorden Verbraeken when he raised from 50,000 to 250,000 on the {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Spades}{8-Hearts} river and tabled {q-Hearts}{5-Hearts} as the winning hand.

The new level started with a jam by Karoly Odor and a three-bet shove of Verbraeken, which both got through. Then, Wei Huang moved all in for 510,000 and Romero made the call in the cutoff.

Wei Huang: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
James Romero: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

On a board of {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, Huang paired his ace on the flop and cut Romero's stack by more than half.
