Eastwood Gives One Up to Simpson
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Ian Simpson raised to 5,000 in middle position, Nick Eastwood three-bet to 12,100 in the hijack, and Simpson called.
The flop came 10♥5♣2♠ and Eastwood continued for 14,100. Simpson then moved all in for 46,000.
Eastwood spent several minutes in the tank, rechecking his cards a few times before sending them into the muck.
"I thought I was being slow rolled," Simpson said as he took the pot.
"You definitely had the best hand," Eastwood replied.
At the same time at another table, Pedro Gonzalez was all in for 53,500 from early position and an opponent on the button called to put him at risk.
Pedro Gonzalez: A♥A♦ 
Opponent: A♣K♠
Gonzalez had woken up with aces and stayed in front through the 9♥9♦Q♥4♠10♣ board to earn the double up.
