Costanzo Turns the Nuts to Bust Simao

Level 23 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Joao Simao
Joao Simao

In a limped pot, Matthew Costanzo led out for 125,000 from the small blind on a flop of 2QJ and Joao Simao raised to 695,000 in the big blind. Costanzo then moved all in, and Simao called for 1,300,000.

Joao Simao: J952 All in
Matthew Costanzo: AK103

Simao had flopped two pair, but the K turn gave Costanzo the nut straight. Simao needed to fill up on the river, but he missed the 9 and was sent to the rail to bring the field down to two tables.
