Rafael Coming Out of His Shell
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
Sean Rafael is now among the chip leaders after taking a big pot off Roberto Romanello.
We just caught the tail end, but the board read , and there was about 15,000 in the pot. Rafael made a bet of about that much, committing nearly his full stack, and Romanello was in the tank when we walked up. He finally splashed in the call for about a third of his own stack, and we'd never get to see his calling cards. Rafael tabled for jacks full of kings, and that pot has moved him up into second place with 49,000 chips.
