Shimizu Out-Kicks Song

Level 19
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 0 ante

Nozomu Shimizu raised on the button and was called by Kevin Song in the big blind.
Song check-called a bet from Shimizu on the K?7?2? flop and then both players checked on the 6? turn.
The A? came on the river and Song led out for a bet, which Shimizu called.
Song held A?8? for a pair of aces, but it was no good against the A?J? of Shimizu for aces with a higher kicker and Shimizu was sent the pot.
