Portaro Punished by Cold Deck, Eliminated

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

We’ve lost Bruno Portaro in the first level today after he found an inferior full house against tablemate Simon Chahine.

We arrived at the table just as the money had gone all in on the river with the board reading {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{a-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Portaro had {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} for a flopped full house but Chahine’s {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} had that trumped with a turned aces full of eights.

“That’s disgusting” Chahine admitted as Portaro stood up from his seat.

“The shortest Aussie Millions of all time” Portaro said before exiting the tournament area.

Apparently Chahine just flatted in the big blind preflop so the strength of his hand was disguised from Portaro.
