Newey Wins a Weird One
![[user101598]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Level 18
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Vanessa Selbst opened to 100,000 from under the gun, Paul Newey just flat-called in the big blind, and the flop fell 
. Newey immediately moved all in for his remaining 180,000, and Selbst chuckled.
“I didn’t hit the flop, guys,” Selbst said jokingly after about 30 seconds. “The old-fashioned stop-and-go.”
She eventually mucked her hand, saying she had ace-high, and Newey picked up the pot.
