Romanello's Pair Too Small

Just moments before the break, we lost Welshman Roberto Romanello. "Were you Ivey-ed?" I inquired, considering my question to be more than an 8:1 shot. "Yeah, I was actually," came the response. (By the way, think 'Gavin and Stacey' when reading Roberto's quotes - or Tom Jones for American viewers).

"I only had 1,100 at the time," he continued, "but flopped a pair, so got it in. He won with fours."

Something tells me Roberto's pair wasn't the biggest, but either way, he's gone, whilst Ivey continues to escalate up the chip counts.
