Michael Breen opened to 25,000 on the Button, and Luke Newman made the call from the Big Blind.
After an initial check from Newman, Breen continued for 31,000 on the 8♦4♠7♣ flop. Newman then completed a check-raise move, seeing as he moved all in for 122,000. Breen made the call without hesitation.
Luke Newman: A♦4♥
Michael Breen: J♥J♠
Newman saw the bad news and rose from his chair. The old trick always seems to work; Newman improved to a superior pair on the A♥ turn, and the Q♣ couldn’t help Breen. As such, Newman doubled up.
Michael Breen: 426,000
Luke Newman: 310,000
