Simao Takes Bite from Neves�� Stack
Level 35
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Joao Simao raised 1,200,000 under the gun. Action folded to Pedro Neves, who was in the big blind, and Neves defended by calling Simao��s preflop raise.
The dealer fanned K?Q?3? on the board, and Neves checked.
Simao, a two-time WSOP bracelet winner, bet 800,000, which Neves briefly considered before calling.
The turn brought 9?, which Neves checked. Simao sized up a bet to 2,650,000, which proved more than enough to push Neves out of the hand with a fold.
