In a clash of the British whose names surprisingly end in 'o,' the unpredictable Albert Sapiano, honey magnate and recent fixture on the tournament scene, got into a big confrontation with Roberto Romanello, Welsh whiz-kid with a doctorate in table talk.
Romanello had gotten his entire stack in with the board reading : . Sapiano had made the call and I could just see his in bad shape against Romanello's flopped set - .
The river... Romanello, originally getting up to leave, actually covers Sapiano by 225, but the game is pretty much up. As he stood with a pained expression, he got a rubdown of lemon juice squeezed in the papercut of defeat:
"You know why that happened? Because you lie. God punishes those that lie."
"I always lie!" Romanello stood his ground - I imagine some kind of chat was part of the reason Sapiano called his bet.
As I write this, Romanello exits. "You always do me!" he exclaims at Sapiano as he makes his rueful exit.
