Massey Extends Lead at New Table

Matt Newcombe opened to 27,000 and received a call from Aaron Massey in the big blind who was still in the process of stacking his chips out of their racks after moving tables.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and Massey checked. Newcombe fired 23,000 and Massey stared at the board for a moment before calling.

The {J-Spades} came on fourth street and both players checked. The {3-Clubs} fell on fifth and they both checked once again. Newcombe showed {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts} but was behind Massey's {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}. Massey dragged in the pot and found a way to add the new chips to his already massive stack.

Not familiar with Aaron Massey? Our very own Sarah Grant caught up with him during the last break to get to know him a little better. Take a look:
