Simpson Rivers a Set to Double Off Karatas
Level 17
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Sarhabib Karatas opened the cutoff to 10,000 and then called the shove of Ian Simpson, who moved all in from the big blind for 75,000.
Ian Simpson: 5♠5♣
Sarhabib Karatas: K♣10♣
Karatas took the lead on the 4♥3♠10♥ flop as he paired his ten, which left Simpson with two shots at two outs. The J♣ turn was a swing and a miss, but the 5♦ river was the home run as Simpson improved to a set to double up.
Shaun Deeb is at the same table and has boosted his stack to around 460,000.
