Simon Comes Back

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

John Simon, who lost a big part of his stack right before the dinner break in a confrontation against Wenhao Ying is now back to a stack above the two million mark.

On the last hand, the flop showed {j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds} when the player in the big blind bet 100,000 and Simon raised it to 285,000. After some tanking, the initial player announced all in and Simon snap-called with {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for a pair of jacks. His opponent, holding {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, didn't hit on the {2-Hearts} turn and {q-Diamonds} river and busted from the tournament.
