The Romanello Show
Oh, we have had some fun and games over at Table 3 and most of the fun has centred around Roberto Romanello. Our attention was drawn to the table after a hugh gathering amassed themselves around the table just as a rather irate [Removed:283] was walking away in apparent disgust.
We spoke to Romanello to get the low down on the action and this is what he told us. There was a limper and a raise and a cold call by [Removed:288]. Romanello had pocket Kings and made a huge raise to 8,500 which [Removed:288] called. The flop was and Romanello checked and [Removed:288] bet 10,000 and Romanello called. The river was and Romanello once again checked before [Removed:288] announced he was all-in. This was a decision for all of Romanello's chips and after having a discussion with the Italian decided to make the call and showed the pocket Kings. [Removed:288] erupted when he saw them and started to say a lot of words very loudly in Italian, mostly directed at Romanello, before storming out of the building. [Removed:288] has not returned in the past twenty minutes and there is just over 1,000 in chips where he used to sit.
A few hands later and he is at it again. This time against Ange Thierry Astorga. Romanello opened from early position to 725 and Astorga three-bet from the button making it 2,025 to play. Romanello makes the call. The flop is and Romanello again checks to Astorga who bets 5,000 and Romanello calls. The river is the and Romanello again checks and so does Astorga.
"King high." Says Astorga.

"I was calling you down with Ace high. Why does everyone want to bluff Romanello today?" Said the Welshman.
