Some Time With Newey

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

High Roller, Paul Newey, seems to be enjoying his day here and just slow played top set/full house to get three streets of value out of Roger Suter.

Newey was on the button and called a 600 raise from Suter in the cut-off. The board ran out {2-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades} with Suter leading for 800 and 1,200 on the first two streets. On the river he checked to Newey who bet 4,000. Suter called and was shown {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. He looked a little disgusted as he mucked.

The very next hand New raised to 550 from the cut-off and Vanessa Rousso defended her big blind to see an {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop appear. He continued for 800 and called when the Team Pro check-raised to 1,600. The turn came as the {6-Spades} and Newey gave up when Rousso bet.

Newey has a potentially huge week ahead of him as his friend on the rail confirmed that he intends to play the €1,000,000 buy in cash game if it goes ahaead.
