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.

Quadruple Up for Newey
Level 2
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Paul Newey pushed all-in for the last 11,500 and received no fewer than three callers in the next seats including Tsugunari Toma, Guram Andronikashvili and Lukasz Szymon Grossmann. The 
flop brought a bet worth 15,500 by Toma and Grossmann was the only caller.
The 
followed on the turn and Toma now bet another 19,000 for Grossmann to call. Both remaining active players checked the 
on the river and Newey rolled over the 
for kings and tens. Toma only had 
for an inferior two pair and lost both pots, as Grossmann won the side pot with 
while Newey quadrupled up.

Another Check-Raise Works for Nemeth

river, Andras Nemeth checked his option out of the big blind. Mikhail Nikolaev bet 7,000 from three seats over and Nemeth then went for another check-raise to 32,000. No call by Nikolaev followed and the Hungarian raked in the next pot without showdown.
