Clayton Newman moved all in from the cutoff seat for 212,000, and Brock Parker called him from the big blind.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, putting Newman in front. The turn was the {Q-Hearts}. And the river brought the {Q-Diamonds}. Newman doubles up to 450,000. Parker now has 1.2 million.

A Georgia native, the 22-year-old Newman had a deep run at last summer's WSOP Main Event, earning $32,166 for his 305th place finish. Newman also had another cash in another WSOP event last summer with a 111th place finish in a $1,500 no-limit hold'em tournament. Besides playing poker and working as an online poker instructor, Newman also enjoys traveling, video games, and golf.
