Ian Simpson Ships a Small Pot
Among the players in the field is the United Kingdom's Ian Simpson. We just saw him take down a pot of around 2,000 chips to get back to his starting stack when his gave him top pair. Simpson checked all streets, however, his opponent who mucked his cards at the end of the hand fired out bullets on the flop and turn when checked to him.
Simpson is approaching $1 million in live tournament cashes. While this isn't his first time playing at the Unibet Open, a good amount of his success has come at the PaddyPower Irish Open.
In 2012, Simpson took fourth place in the Irish Open Main Event for €107,500 ($141,623) before winning the event a year later for €265,000 ($339,604). Simpson also had another six-digit haul in 2013 when he took second place in the UKIPT London Main Event for £106,869 ($173,277).
