Simon Doubles Through Vang

Level 19 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante

Kou Vang opened for 70,000 from the cutoff, and John Simon jammed for 310,000 in the small blind. Vang quickly called.

Vang: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Simon: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Vang was in a dominating position, but the door card was the {9-Clubs}, leading to a {j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop. A {4-Hearts} gave Simon a meaningless flush draw since Vang held the {q-Hearts} already, and a {7-Clubs} completed the board.
