Ace High Better Than Queen High

From under the gun, Roberto Romanello raised to 2,500. Edouard Mignot called on the button and the dealer produced the {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} on the flop. Romanello bet 3,500 and Mignot called.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and both players checked to see the {2-Spades} come out on the river. After Romanello checked, Mignot bet 8,000. Romanello called.

"Queen high," said Mignot, but Romanello waited patiently and silently for him to table his hand. He announced again that he had queen high, but Romanello waited until he turned up his {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. Then, Romanello showed the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for ace high and won the pot.
