Newey Gives Up Two
Level 1
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Paul Newey has seen his stack go from the starting amount of 250,000 to roughly 225,000 after losing two early pots here at Atlantis. The first he dropped to Isaac Haxton, and the second he gave up to Tom Marchese.
On the first hand, action was picked up on the turn of a board reading 
. Haxton had raised Newey's wager of 11,200 to 40,000, and Neweay opted to fold.
On the second hand, Newey had opened with a raise before Marchese three-bet to 6,500 on the button. When play folded back to Newey, he called, but then check-folded the 
flop to a bet of 5,000 from Marchese.
