Simpson Calls Correctly

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Salvador Cervantes opened to 25,000 from under the gun and picked up three callers along the way. The flop came {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and Alex Greenblatt checked from the big blind. Cervantes continued for 47,000 and Michael Simpson called along with the cutoff. Greenblatt folded as the {j-Clubs} hit the turn.

The action checked around to the {5-Hearts} on the river where Cervantes shipped all in. Simpson went into the tank for a couple of minutes before calling off his last 185,000. The cutoff folded and the two hands were tabled. Cervantes showed {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} but Simpson flopped a pair of tens with {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and scored a double up.
