The cutoff limped in, Yasuhiro Waki completed in the small blind and Giuseppe Simonelli checked his option in the big.

Waki led out for 700 on a flop of 3♣4♣6♠. Only Simonelli continued.

The 3♠ turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Waki sized up to 2,200.

The river fell the 6♦ and Waki emptied the clip with a bet of 8,500, sending Simonelli into the tank.

Simonelli thought for some time before making the call for a good proportion of his own stack. Waki instantly mucked his cards face down while Simonelli proudly slammed A♠J♠ on the table for just ace high.
