Paul Newey Sets Up Damian Salas

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

When we arrived at Table 3, there was 52,000 in the middle and a board reading {3-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. Damian Salas, who was in the under-the-gun position, was debating what to do as Paul Newey, who was on the button, had moved all in for 26,300.

Eventually Salas called with his {5-Hearts}{8-Hearts} but discovered that he was drawing dead as Newey had turned top set with the {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The meaningless {A-Spades} was run out on the river and Newey shipped the double.
