Simpson Eliminates Opponent

Lewis Powell

Level 5 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A player from early position raised to 800 and Ian Simpson called in middle position. Action folded around to the big blind who moved all in for 8,700. The player in early position folded and Simpson thought through his decision before deciding to call.

Big Blind: A?Q?
Ian Simpson: J?10?

Simpson was behind but had his opponent covered and had two live cards. The river was drama free as it came 8?7?2?. However the turn put Simpson way out in front went it came the 10? and the river of the K? ensured his opponent was eliminated.
