Patouilliart Doubles to Leave Simao Short
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Paul Patouilliart opened to 1,500 from middle position and was three-bet to 5,000 from Joao Simao, who was in the cutoff. Action folded back to Patouilliart and he made it 15,000 to go. Simao called.
The flop came 6♣Q♥3♠ and Patouilliart moved all in for his last 23,800. Simao verified the amount and called to put Patouilliart at risk.
Paul Patouilliart: A♣A♠K♣6♦
Joao Simao: J♦9♦7♠6♠
Patouilliart held the lead with his aces, and the 4♥10♥ failed to improve Simao to award Patouilliart the double up.
