Bono HIts a Royal Flush!
The rarest, most sought after hand in Texas Hold'em has just made an appearance at the table, a royal flush!
Peter Skripka opened the betting with a raise to 200,000 from the button and both Roberto Romanello and Emilliano Bono made the call from the small blind and the big blind respectively.
Flop: 
- Unsurprisingly, all three players checked this extremely draw heavy board.
Turn: 
- A fourth diamond on the turn saw Romanello check then fold when, Bono bet 225,000 and Skripka called.
River: 
- All five community cards were diamonds but did anyone hold the jack and have a royal flush? Bono took a couple of minutes before betting 450,000, causing Skripka to rock back on his chair and look extremely uncomfortable indeed.
"Jack of diamonds?" quizzed Skripka, "No way," seemingly dismissing this as an option.
Bono sat silently, possibly a first for him, with his palms flat on the felt but he didn't stay that way for long. Skripka eventually called, at which point Bono literally lept from his seat shouted "YESSSS!" and slammed down 
for a diamond royal flush!
Skripka apparently held the 
for the second nut flush, most certainly the second best hand. With that the young Russian drops to 1,200,000 whilst his Italian opponent climbs to the dizzy heights of 3,300,000
