Simao's the King
Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
We caught the action with Noomis Jones opening to 25,000 from under the gun, before Joao Simao raised to 90,000 from the button. Jones thought for over a minute, before making the call and then checking his option dark.
The flop came down 
, and Simao quickly announced “pot”. 195,000 was the amount, and Jones again went into the tank. He eventually folded, but no before tabling his 
, to show Simao what he was folding. Simao then quickly tabled his 
for the same pair, as he raked in the pot.
“I had more than that,” said Simao. “I had a nice hand.”
“Well I had nothing else.” “That’s why I folded.” Joked Jones.
