Feeling Like a Brand Newman

In middle position, Freddy Deeb opened to 9,000 before Anthony Newman moved all in for 41,000 from the button. In the big blind, Nicolas Levi took pause, eventually announcing a reraise all in back over the top. Deeb folded his ace-something, and it was heads-up with Newman at risk.

Showdown
Newman: {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}
Levi: {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}

Newman stood up and pumped his fist at the sight of the showdown, and he was poised for a double. The dealer ran a board of {8-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {4-Spades} {2-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} to hold his overpair and secure that double, moving him up to about 95,000.
