Newey Takes it Away on the River
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Daniel Tafur made it 800 to go from under the gun with Paul Newey calling from the hijack, and Robert Tencza defending his big blind.
Tencza checked the 8♠Q♦K♥ flop, and Tafur put out a continuation-bet of 1,500. Newey called, but Tencza folded.
Heads-up now to the 5♦ turn, where Tafur fired again, this time for 2,000. Once again, Newey called.
The A♣ river prompted Tafur to slow down and check. Newey fired 5,800, which was enough to get a fold from Tafur.
