Arduini Calls Simpson with Ace-High

Ryan Lashmar

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Ian Simpson raised to 2,500 from the small blind and Lorenzo Arduini defended from the big blind.

Both players checked the flop and turn leading to a final board of K♥Q♦2♦8♦Q♠. Simpson bet 2,000 and was called by Arduini.

Neither player connected with the board. Simpson could only show 10♦3♥ while Arduini had an ace with A♦7♣ which was good to take the pot.
