Grane Wins Two Rounds Against Simpson

With two players seeing a board of 10♠2♥8♠ and about 15,000 in the middle, Albert Grane checked from under the gun and Ian Simpson bet 5,500 from the button. Grane made the call.

Simpson bet again for 10,000 when checked to on the Q♠ turn and once again was called by Grane.

Both players checked the 7♠ river.

"I win" Grane declared, tabling J♠10♦ for a rivered flush to take the pot.

The very next hand, Simpson opened to 4,000 from the cutoff and Albert Grane defended from the big blind.

The flop came Q♠5♠7♥ and Grane check-called a 3,500 continuation bet from Simpson.

Both players checked the 8♥ turn leading to the 6♥ river. Simpson bet 15,000, sending Grane into the tank.

Several minutes went by before Grane flicked in the call. Simpson tabled A♣5♦ for bottom pair, turned into aa bluff. Grane turned over J♥7♣ for just a pair of sevens to take another pot at Simpson's expense.
