Simpson Takes Chip Lead

Level 11 : 1,750/3,500, 450 ante
Kuznetsov vs Simpson
Kuznetsov vs Simpson

Ian "Simpioni" Simpson raised to 7,000 from the early position and was called by Timofey "hello_totti" Kuznetsov in the middle position and Joep "Pappe_Ruk" van den Bijgaart in the big blind.

It was checked to Kuznetsov on the {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop who bet 17,025 which only Simpson check-called.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and Simpson check-raised the 45,555 bet of Kuznetsov to 178,500 for the latter to shove for 184,975 in total and Simpson to make the call.

Timofey "hello_totti" Kuznetsov: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}
Ian "Simpioni" Simpson: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Kuznetsov had flopped top pair while Simpson was sitting on the open-ended straight and flush draw.

The river completed the board with the {a-Diamonds} for Simpson to make the straight and even better flush to eliminate Kuznetsov.
