Toma Doubles Through Newey
Level 2
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick raised it up to 2,500 on the button for Paul Newey to three-bet in the small blind, making it 10,500 to go. Tsugunari Toma cold-called in the big blind and Chidwick got out of the way. On a flop of 
, Newey continued for 13,500 and Toma came along.
As they headed to the 
turn, Newey slowed down and checked. Toma bet 15,000 with 33,000 behind and Newey called within the allocated 30 seconds. The 
fell on the river and Newey checked once more. Toma moved all-in and Newey invested one time bank before calling with the slightly superior stack.
The 
of Toma had turned a full house and Newey's 
ended up second-best to leave the Brit very short.
