Simao Doubles Through Zobian

Level 15 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Aram Zobian raised to 50,000 from the cutoff and was called by Joao Simao in the big blind.

The flop came 963 and Simao checked to Zobian, who bet out 65,000. Simao then moved all in for 310,000, which Zobian snap-called.

Aram Zobian: AK All in
Joao Simao: Q9

Simao out flopped Zobian, but would need fade the two over cards and flush draw for Zobian. The board ran out 62 and the pair of nines were good to give Simao the double up.
