Level 13 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Action went heads up to a flop of 8♦9♦5♥ in a hand between Stephen Chidwick, who was under the gun, and Joao Simao in the hijack.

With over 150,000 in the middle, both players checked to the 9♥ turn, where Chidwick led out for 90,000. Simao announced "pot" and Chidwick tossed his cards into the muck.
