Romero's Bluff Failed

Level 14 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Diogo Veiga raised to 14,000 from under the gun and was called by Herbert Hinterndorfer in mid-position and James Romero on the button.

They all checked through the {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop to the {4-Hearts} on the turn. Veiga bet 22,000 which Hinterndorfer called. Romero raised to 60,000 which only Hinterndorfer called in the end.

The river completed the board with the {6-Diamonds}, Hinterndorfer checked and Romero asked how much he had behind. Hinterndorfer opened his arms and Romero saw he had 60,000 behind. Romero took a bit more time and then decided to put Hinterndorfer all-in. Hinterndorfer tanked for a while and decided to make the call. Romero tabled {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for the two pair on the board with the seven-kicker in his hand. Hinterndorfer stared for a while and when the rest of the table confirmed it was a seven, he turned around his {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for the nine-kicker to double up.
