Imminent Collision

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Big stacks Cristobal Romano and Teddy Gill are now seated at the same table and seem to be headed on a collision course.

Moments ago, Gill limped into a pot from middle position only to see Romano pump it up to 25k total. A short stack in the small blind shoved for 26,500 more and after Gill passed, Romano made the call showing {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}.

The shorty had tens and an ace on the flop did him in. However, Gill was left wondering what could have been when the board finished up {4-}{5-}{6-}{7-}.

Apparently he had pocket eights.

"I shouldn't fold anything," he said, as Romano raked in the pot.
