Joao Simao Eliminated in 16th Place ($24,509)
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Joao Simao potted preflop to 105,000, leaving just 40,000 behind, and both Ben Yu and John Holley called. On the 10?4?4? flop, Holley checked, Simao bet 30,000, and Yu called.
Holley then raised to 105,000, Simao called his remaining 10,000, and Yu folded.
Joao Simao: A?J?4?2?
John Holley: K?10?10?9?
Holley had wholly smashed the flop, making the 9? turn and 2? river more or less a mere formality. Simao said his goodbyes to leave 15 players to go on break.
