Newhouse In Need of Repair

We caught up with this one on the flop. With the board showing {6-Clubs}{K-Spades}{8-Spades}, two players checked to Mark Newhouse who bet 2,000. The first called, then the second raised to 9,500. Newhouse then reraised all in. The first player folded, and the second, whom Newhouse had covered, made the call.

Newhouse showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}, but his opponent held {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for two pair. The turn was the {4-Spades} and the river the {6-Hearts}, and Newhouse has been knocked back to 9,000.
