Simao Gets Three-Quartered

Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

A rather innocuous blind-on-blind battle between Long Tran and Joao Simao exploded on the river when the dealer completed the J?10?2?7?5? board. Simao bet a large part of his stack, Tran stuck the rest in and Simao called.
Tran rolled over A?5?5?4? for the nut flush and a 7-5-4-2-A low. Simao tabled A?K?10?4? for the same low to escape with a quarter of the pot.
