Simao Pushes All In

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante
Joao Simao
Joao Simao

The player in the hijack raised to 300 and Bruno Portaro called from the cutoff. Joao Simao sat on the button and he put in a three-bet to 1,050. Both blinds folded and so did the initial raiser. Portaro called to see the flop.

The flop was {4-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Portaro check-called a bet of 800. The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and Portaro check-called again, but this time Simao's bet was 1,500. The {K-Hearts} river completed the board and Portaro checked to Simao who pushed all-in for his last 6,500.

Portaro was visibly in doubt about what the best move was and ended up folding his hand.
