Thomas Newton opened for 85,000 under the gun. Action folded to Max Kruse on the button, who put in a three-bet to 225,000.

"Show the queen," a tablemate told Newton.

"There is no queen there," Kruse said as Newton returned his cards face down.

Scott Stays Alive Again

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 60,000 ante

Drew Scott was down to his last 215,000 and moved all in from under the gun. "Not my best play," big blind Jonathan McGowan said as he called and took two.
