We caught up to this hand just before the flop. The chips were in the middle and Andrew Hoffman was all in against Clayton Newman. The players showed:

Hoffman: {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

Newman:

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

The flop was gin for Hoffman, coming {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

. He took the lead in the hand and never gave it up. The turn and river were blanks and Hoffman doubled up to just over 39,000. Newman was left with 16,300 after the hand.
