Newcomb Knocks One Out

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

A player raised from under the gun to 750 and two players called, including Chuck Newcomb, before the player in the small blind shoved all in for his last 7,250. The next two players folded and the action was on Newcomb. Newcomb weighed his decision while rubbing his hands together, ala Mr. Miyagi from the Karate Kid. Newcomb then flicked a chip into the pot to call.

Newcomb showed {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and he was up against an opponent with {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The board made short work of his opponent when a queen came on the {q-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{a-Spades} flop and his opponent never caught up with the turn, {9-Spades}, and the river, {5-Clubs}.
