Zeng Coolers Newman to Double
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Zhiqin Zeng opened to 1,600 from early position before Thomas Fuller three-bet next to act. In the hijack, Graeme Newman cold four-bet to 25,000. With the action back on Zeng, he five-bet jammed for 38,800, Fuller quickly folded, and Newman called.
Zhiqin Zeng: A♠A♣ 
Graeme Newman: A♦K♦
It was an unavoidable cooler between two premium hands with Zeng having the best of it. Nothing changed on the Q♥Q♣8♣ flop. However, the Q♦ on the turn gave Newman a single chop-out which did not come on the 2♦ river as Zeng found the full double at the expense of Newman.
