Henry Finds an Ace to Eliminate Simmons
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Sampson Simmons opened the button to 2,500 and Jason White called in the small blind. In the big blind, Joseph Henry squeezed to 12,400. Simmons would then jam for 25,900. White tanked for a while before he folded what he later said was ace-queen. Henry would then tank for almost two minutes before he flicked in the additional 13,500 to call.
Sampson Simmons: Q♦Q♣
Joseph Henry: A♥Q♠
Simmons was in good shape to double until the A♠10♠9♠ flop gave Henry top pair. As the 7♦ turn was dealt, White broke an unwritten rule as he exclaimed, "It's over, I folded a queen!" The 2♣ completed the board and Simmons was sent to the exit.
