Simion Bluffs Defending Champ
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Bogdan Simion opened to 2,200 from under the gun and was called by Gilles Simon on the button for a head-up pot.
Both players checked on the 3♥5♣K♥ flop and Simion checked again on the 5♥ turn. Simon bet 2,000 and Simion responded by check-raising to 5,500.
Simon, who won the main event in Cyprus last year, let his hand go and Simion tabled A♠J♦ before collecting the pot.
