Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

In the cutoff, Oleksii Khoroshenin raised to 2,300 and Joao Simao three-bet to 7,000 in the small blind, which Simao called. On the {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop, Simao check-called a bet of 22,000 and did so again for 17,000 on the {A-Diamonds} turn.

The {6-Hearts} river completed the board and Simao checked the third street in a row. Khoroshenin shoved for effective 72,800, as that's what Simao had left, and the Brazilian called with {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. Khoroshenin briefly showed his cards but failed to beat Simao, forfeiting a big portion of his stack.
