Not a Sad Affair for Simone
Level 19
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
The action was picked up on the 
flop on which Kazuhiko Yotsushika checked out of the big blind and Eddie Saade did so from one seat over. Alfonso Simone then bet 24,000 on the button for both of his opponents to call.
Yotsushika led the 
turn for 50,000 and Saade called. Simone moved all-in to force out Yotsushika while Saade asked for an exact count. The shove was for 149,000 total and Saade tank-called.
Alfonso Simone: 
Eddie Saade: 
Saade immediately sighed when the cards were turned over and tapped the table with a "nice hand". Simone had the double locked up with his set and further improved to a full house on the 
river.
