Bald Move from Fabrizio; Italian Doubles Through
Hand #176: Baldassari raised again, this time to 130,000, but Bord opted to call. Ronald Lee, however, squeezed from the big blind, making it a total of 400,000 to go.
Quicker than a cheetah on Concord, Baldassari announced all-in, Bord folded, and Lee called.
In the blink of an eye, we had a showdown, the Italian in water hotter than the sun with versus Lee's superior .
The Poker Gods were clearly in a devilish mood as they lay a flop on the felt, followed by a harmless turn and river.
Baldassari was grabbed by an attractive woman on the rail who threw a barrage of kisses the Italian's way. Lee must have been gutted he didn't win, for the sexual assault alone.
"No woman has ever kissed me like that," wept a member of the Harrah's staff who I am unable to name.
