Newman Gives it up

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Michael Newman opened to 6,000 from the lojack and was three-bet to 16,500 from the player in the hijack. Action folded back around to Newman, who called.

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Newman checked, prompting a 9,000 bet from his opponent. Newman folded and conceded the pot.

It was a small setback for Newman, who has steadily increased his stack throughout the day. He currently sits with about 180,000.
