Simion Bluffs Defending Champ

Daniel J O'Hair

Niveau 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Bogdan Simion opened to 2,200 from under the gun and was called by [Removed:553] on the button for a head-up pot.

Both players checked on the 3♥5♣K♥ flop and Simion checked again on the 5♥ turn. Simon bet 2,000 and Simion responded by check-raising to 5,500.

Simon, who won the main event in Cyprus last year, let his hand go and Simion tabled A♠J♦ before collecting the pot.
