Simon Bluffs Into Ivanov's Aces
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Lyudmil Ivanov just picked up pocket aces at the right time and got a full double-up courtesy of [Removed:553].
Ivanov had opened from the button and called a three-bet from Simon, who was in the small blind. They saw a flop of 4♣3♦K♣ where Simon continued for 9,500, and Ivanov called to see the 8♣ hit the turn, Simon again bet, this time announcing a sizing of 15,000, which again Ivanov called.
A 4♥ completed the runout and Simon took some time before he shoved for a little over 60,000. Ivanov had 55,000 in his stack and after rechecking his cards, he made a quick call.
Simon then tabled a bluff with Q♣J♦, but couldn't beat the A♣A♥ of Ivanov.
