Simpson Keeps the Pressure On
Level 31
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Losing the all-in pot hasn't deterred Ian Simpson from continuing to apply pressure on Alvaro Murciano.
In the latest series of pots, Murciano raised to 800,000 on the button with Q?2? and Simpson defended Q?10?. Both players checked the J?8?7? flop and Simpson took the pot with a bet of 1,600,000 on the 3? turn.
Simpson then limped the button with K?9? and Murciano checked back 9?6?. The flop came Q?J?3? and Simpson bet 400,000. Murciano then raised to 900,000 and Simpson called.
Murciano slowed down and checked the A? turn, Simpson bet 1,600,000, and Murciano folded.
