Romero Rebounds

On a flop of {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{K-Spades}, Martin Romero spiked in a bet of 18,000 into a pot of about the same size. His opponent, who was sitting on a stack of about 85,000, immediately announced that he was all in and Romero snap-called.

Showdown
Romero: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

Romero shot out of his chair and started celebrating as he headed over to his rail. During his absence, the dealer proceeded to put out the {Q-Diamonds} turn and {2-Hearts} river. Romero's opponent was clearly upset and made a quick exit from the tournament floor while a tournament official had a quick talk with Romero. What about, we're not quite sure, but it was most likely pertaining to his excessive celebration.

However, it is hard to blame the young man as he is up to around 260,000.
