Newey Wins the Race to Double Up
Nível 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Paul Newey opened the action with a raise all in for his stack of 1,500,000 from early position. It then folded to the small blind Matas Cimbolas who three-bet all in, which got a quick fold from the big big blind, leaving the players heads up, with Newey at risk.
Paul Newey: A♥8♣
Matas Cimbolas: 7♦7♣
It was a flip, but Newey would need to improve to stay in the tournament. He managed to do just that once the board ran out K♦Q♥8♠3♥K♠ to secure the double up with his two pair, kings and eights.
