flop, James St Hilaire and Roberto Romanello checked from the blinds. Rudolph Sawa bet out 40,000 from the button and St Hilaire called.
Romanello, however, woke up with a check-raise, announcing, "raise pot." He had less than that, playing 142,000. While Sawa escaped quickly, St Hilaire called to put Romanello at risk.

Romanello had the top set and was in good shape for a double, but the
turn flipped a switch. "I like that," St Hilaire said.
Suddenly, Romanello could only hope for the remaining jack in the pack, and that never arrived as the
river sealed Romanello's fate.
