Shahar Sends Simpson Home
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ran Shahar made it 20,000 under the gun and Ian Simpson jammed the button for 53,000. When the action folded back to Shahar, he called and the players went to a showdown.
Ian Simpson: K♣10♥
Ran Shahar: A♦6♣
Shahar held a slight lead, but Simpson had two live cards. A flop of 6♥A♥J♠ gave Shahar two pair, while Simpson picked up a straight draw. Simpson was unable to improve on the 8♣ turn or 2♦ river, and all of his chips headed over to Shahar.
