Simpson Runs Into a Higher Pair
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Hector Sevilla raised to 2,400 in early position and Ian Simpson called in the big blind.
The flop came 5♦6♦4♥ and Simpson led out for 3,000. Sevilla then raised to 10,000 and Simpson called.
The 10♥ fell on the turn and Sevilla fired out 15,000. Simpson quickly folded.
The next hand, Daniel Tafur made it 2,700 on the button before Simpson three-bet to 11,900. Tafur moved all in and Simpson tanked for a moment before calling for his last 60,000.
Ian Simpson: 10♣10♠
Daniel Tafur: J♦J♥
Simpson's fellow 888poker Team members stopped by the table as this hand was taking place. "You're timing couldn't be worse, guys," Simpson told him. The board ran out 2♦2♥6♥3♣Q♠ and Tafur's jacks sent Simpson to the rail.
