Romanello Fills Up on River to Survive
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
The action was joined as big blind Roberto Romanello committed his remaining 15,900 into the middle on a J♣J♦6♦9♠ board, and Sebastian Risco, playing from the cutoff, had him at risk.
Roberto Romanello: Jx8x
Sebastian Risco: 6x6x
Risco had flopped a full house, but the board-pairing 9♥ river improved Romanello to a better boat, giving him a full double up.
