Simpson Goes For It on River
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A player in early position opened the action to 4,500 and it folded to Conrad Simpson in middle position who three-bet to 13,000. The rest of the table got out of the way and the initial raiser made the call.
The flop came 8?8?2? and the player in early position check-called a bet of 7,000 from Simpson. On the 7? turn both players elected on a check to the K? river.
The early position player checked a third time and Simpson moved all in, covering his opponents just over 40,000 stack, who went deep in the tank. After close to a minute, the early position player reluctantly let his cards go and the pot was shipped to Simpson without showdown.
