Kourtney Sims
Kourtney Sims

Nick Sims raised to 175,000 from under the gun with {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Phil Hoff came along from the big blind with {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

The flop was {5-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and Hoff check-called a 120,000 bet from Sims. The turn was {7-Spades}.

Both players checked and the river was {8-Hearts}. Hoff fired 300,000 and Sims got away from it without much hesitation.

Sims is looking to improve on the performance of his wife, Kourtney, in this Summer's Bar Poker Open Championship at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas where she finished second for $25,385.
