The Return of the Bubble Boy
At every major tournament there is always one unfortunate soul who just doesn't quite make it into the money. We call this poor soul the bubble boy. At EPT Vienna the bubble boy was Gianni Giaroni. If you met him you would realise that bubble boy is not really a name that fits his description. I prefer to call him the bubble nice bloke.
Well the bubble nice bloke is back for more and good for him. We caught up with him during this hand.
There was a raise from middle position to 650 and Giaroni made the call from the button. The dealer gave us on the flop and the original raiser made a continuation bet of 750 and Giaroni raised to 2,000 and the original raiser made the call. The turn was the and both players checked before the dealer gave us a on the river. The original raiser checked and Giaroni bet 3,000 and his opponent threw his hand into the muck and Giaroni took down the pot.
