Paul Newey opened to 20,000 in the hijack and Julien Sitbon flat-called on the button. Joao Vieira announced all in from the big blind and Newey quickly called off his stack of 241,000. Sitbon asked for a count but elected to lay his hand down.
Paul Newey: Q?Q?
Joao Vieira: 7?7?
The board ran out J?8?3?8?A? and Newey's pocket queens held on for a double-up.
