Shimizu Out-Kicks Song

Nível 19 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 0 ante

Nozomu Shimizu raised on the button and was called by Kevin Song in the big blind.

Song check-called a bet from Shimizu on the K♦7♣2♠ flop and then both players checked on the 6♦ turn.

The A♥ came on the river and Song led out for a bet, which Shimizu called.

Song held A♦8♥ for a pair of aces, but it was no good against the A♠J♥ of Shimizu for aces with a higher kicker and Shimizu was sent the pot.
