Simone Takes Out Ostapchenko

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Andrew Ostapchenko got his last 20,500 into the middle preflop from the small blind. Cutoff player Frank Simone made the call to put him at risk.

Andrew Ostapchenko: 9♥9♦ All in
Frank Simone: A♣K♠

Ostapchenko was reduced to just two outs on the 6♠K♦3♣ flop, and neither came on the J♥A♠ runout, as Simone made top two.

Ostapchenko has since re-entered.
