Sanchez Doubles Through Simmer
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Sergio Sanchez opened to 2,700 under the gun and was three-bet to 5,000 by Jarred Simmer one seat over. Action folded back to Sanchez and he called.
Sanchez check-called a continuation-bet of 5,000 from Simmer on the flop 
and a second barrel of 7,000 on the turn 
. He then led out for 15,000 on the river 
and saw Simmer slide in a stack of chips greater than what he had left in his stack, which he wasted no time committing.
"Top two pair," said Simmer, showing 
. Sanchez then tabled 
for top set and scored the double. His remaining stack was counted to be 46,400 and the pot was shipped his way once it was made right.
