Newey Counterfeited on the Turn, Saved by the River
Nível 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Paul Newey moved all in for 196,000 in the cutoff as action folded to Fabio Peluso in the big blind, who asked for a count before calling.
Paul Newey: J♠J♦
Fabio Peluso: A♠Q♦
Newey was racing for his tournament life as the flop came 2♦2♣2♠. The turn brought the 2♥ and Peluso counterfeited Newey's jacks with the four deuces on the board.
Newey shot out of his seat and slammed the side table beside him as he was one card away from elimination. "I have to take a photo of this board," he said, taking out his phone as the A♣ fell on the river.
The ace gave both players the same hand and chopped the pot as Newey stayed alive.
