Newey Finds Another Double

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Paul Newey was down to 261,000, and moved all in from first position. Action folded around to Igor Kurganov and he moved in for an additional 650,000 or so. The big blind folded and Newey found out he was an underdog in the fight.

Igor Kurganov: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}
Paul Newey: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {K-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Newey shifted to pole position. The {4-Clubs} on the turn and {2-Hearts} on the river were blanks, and Newey made his double up.
