Third-Best is Good Enough For Simpson
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Alvaro Murciano raised to 200,000 in the cutoff and Michaelangelo Serra called in the small blind. Ian Simpson also came along from the big blind with 8♥6♥.
The flop came K♣6♠3♣ and Murciano bet 150,000. Serra called, while Simpson called with his pair of sixes.
All three players checked the 4♥ turn. The river was the Q♠ and Simpson bet 1,200,000. Murciano folded 8♠8♣, while Serra got rid of 9♠9♣ as Simpson took down the pot despite having the third-best hand.
