In a Hand and Not Knowing Wherefore Art Thou

It folded to Angel Guillen who raised 3x to 60,000 from the small blind. Romeo Piro called from the big blind.

The flop came {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Guillen checked, Piro bet 75,000, and Guillen called. The turn was the {4-Clubs}. Guillen checked again, this time Piro bet 100,000, then Guillen check-raised to 300,000.

Piro went into the tank. He had only 260,000 left behind. Finally he folded, saying that if we weren't on the final (ten-handed) table bubble, he might've gone for it.

Guillen showed one card, the {A-Clubs}, as he dragged the chips. He's now up over 950,000.
