Racener Out-Raced

Steven Simpson opened to 1,200 from under the gun, John Racener called, in the cutoff, Thomas Saxon called in the small blind, and Richard Powell three-bet to 5,500 from the big blind. Simpson called, Racener moved all in, and the action folded back to Simpson, who tank-called for 25,525.
