Niveau 30 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Angel Perez raised to 600,000 on the button and Ian Simpson called in the big blind.

The flop came K♣10♦8♦ and Perez bet 450,000. Simpson then moved all in and Perez called for his last 2,000,000.

Angel Perez: Q♠Q♥ All in
Ian Simpson: K♠6♠

Simpson had outflopped Perez's queens by making a pair of kings as the 7♠ turn left Perez hoping for just one of the last two queens in the deck to stay alive. He instead saw the dealer turn over K♦, giving Simpson trips and sending Perez to the rail in third place.

Niveau 30 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Angel Perez raised to 600,000 on the button and Ian Simpson called in the big blind.

The flop came 8♠4♥2♦ and Perez bet 450,000. Simpson asked Perez to stack his chips evenly to make them easier to count, all while his timer continued to count down. He eventually called and the 6♦ fell on the turn.

Perez then bet 850,000 and Simpson again called. Both players checked the 4♣ river and Simpson showed 6♣3♣ for sixes and fours. Perez mucked J♦7♣ and Simpson took down the big pot to draw level with Alvaro Murciano atop the leaderboard.

After the hand, a tournament official came to the table and made Simpson put in his last time bank card, much to his vocal disagreement.
