Newey Triples Up

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Paul Newey raised to 9,000 from under the gun and was called by Jean-Noel Thorel in the cutoff-seat as well as Leonig Markin in the big blind. On the {K-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {7-Clubs} flop, Newey moved all in for 58,500 and was called by both Thorel and Markin. The {10-Hearts} on the turn was checked to the Frenchman and he moved all in for more than 300,000 chips, having had the Russian covered. Markin eventually mucked his cards and the following showdown took place:

Newey: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}
Thorel: {K-Diamonds} {10-Spades}

The Brit got it in ahead but was then behind on the turn, thus only an ace would save him from purchasing a second bullet. Sure enough the {A-Hearts} showed up on the river and Newey tripled up.
