Justin Newton Doubles Through Phil Laak

Seriously short-stacked Justin Newton got it all in with {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} against Phil Laak's {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. But Newton's dominated hand outflopped Laak when the dealer spread the {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop. And when the turn brought the {2-Spades} and the river the {6-Spades}, Newton doubled up to 240,000. Laak now sits (or squats, as he tends to do on his chair) with 440,000.
