Miral Leaves Newey With Crumbs

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Can Miral on the button and Paul Newey in the big blind got all their chips in the middle before the flop.

Can Miral: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Paul Newey: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Miral hit two pair on the {k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} flop, while Newey was looking to complete a straight draw. The board ran out {4-Spades}{7-Spades} and Miral took the pot.

Newey thought he was eliminated and got up from his seat, wishing his tablemates luck, before a recount showed he had Miral's remaining 98,000 barely covered.
