The Super Rich Go to War

Level 1 : 100/200, 25 ante

Paul Newey and Jean-Noel Thorel are two of the business men playing today and they just did battle with one of them getting eliminated.

There was an under-the-gun raise to 600 that was called in one spot before Thorel squeezed to 2,100 from the button. Newey was in the big blind and put in a four-bet to 6,500.

Only Thorel called to the {6-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop where he also called a 7,000 c-bet. On the {8-Clubs} turn Newey fired 16,000 and called when Thorel shoved for 28,275.

Newey: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Thorel: {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Thorel needed to hit his draw but he failed to do so on the {k-Diamonds} river and busted.
