Michaels Wins a Big One
Hm, we're still a little full from dinner, and we were too slow to get over to the table to catch any of the action. So we'll tell you what we know.
There was a board of out on the table, and Paul Knebel had been all in at some point along the way against two opponents. After the river, Alex Michaels moved all in for 12,300 himself, and Roberto Romanello made the call to put both players at risk.
Showdown
Knebel:
Michaels:
Romanello:
Michaels had flopped a full house with his pocket jacks, and Romanello paid it off with his overpair. Knebel's ace-high was third-best, and he was eliminated. Romanello tumbles down to 44,000, and Michaels is now a force at the table with about 133,000 in front of him.
