Simpson Hits the River to Take a Chunk Off McAulay
Level 20
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ian Simpson raised to 60,000 on the button with A♦K♣ and Paul McAulay defended Q♣3♣.
The K♥Q♥3♦ flop gave Simpson top pair, but McAulay had flopped two pair. Simpson continued for 55,000, McAulay raised to 160,000, and Simpson called.
The turn was the 7♠ and McAulay bet another 300,000. Simpson again called, and the 7♦ river gave him the lead with kings and sevens.
McAulay slowed down and checked over to him, and Simpson bet 250,000. McAulay quickly gave up his hand, and Simpson took the big pot.
