PokerNews caught the action when two players were in a heated preflop battle. On the button, Roberto Romanello opened with a raise, only to be met by a three-bet to 4,000 from Konstantin Voronin. Romanello wasn’t backing down and responded with a five-bet to 16,100. Voronin raised the stakes again, firing back with a six-bet to 45,000. Instead of folding or going all in, Romanello surprised everyone with a seven-bet to 81,100.
After burning through a couple of time bank cards, Voronin decided to fold, handing the pot to Romanello before any community cards were revealed. Romanello commented that Voronin had tried to bluff him, though Voronin stayed quiet.
