Nicholas Newport Doubles His Short Stack
A pair of online qualifers Day 2 qualifiers, Con Collins and Nicholas Newport, both wound up getting short.
The duo just got all the chips in the middle when Collins jammed about 30,000 with 
and Newport subsequently declared he was all in with 
.
The flop came 
before the 
appeared on the turn to clinch the hand for Newport. Collins began to stand up as the 
completed the board on the river.
The dealer seemed amazed as he commented after the seven gave Collins trip sevens, "That was a bit of a dagger."
Then the dealer told Collins that he wasn't yet eliminated from the tournament as he just had Newport covered. Collins was left with less than half a big blind and subsequently officially eliminated a hand or two later.
Along with Dara O'Kearney, Newport is one of the bigger names remaining in the field. He has over $1.2 million in online cashes as tracked by PocketFives along with another over $600,000 in live cashes as tracked by The Hendon Mob.
