O'Brien Dispatches Simpson

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Two short stacks were all in before the flop, with Quintis Simpson the shortest of the three stacks, while Luke O'Brien barely had him covered. Matt Higgins joined the fray and had both of his opponents at risk.

Quintis Simpson: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Luke O'Brien: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Matt Higgins: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

"Deuce!" Higgins said.

The {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop gave his deuces a major sweat, and the {3-Diamonds} turn gave Simpson a flush, while O'Brien held the nut flush draw and Higgins was still live with a full house draw. The {5-Diamonds} river filled the flush for O'Brien, and Simpson was eliminated while O'Brien mroe than doubled up.
