Newcombe's Domination
Andy Robinson opened to 250,000 and was called by Matt Newcombe in the big blind. The flop came down and Newcombe check-called a bet of 275,000.
The hit the turn and Newcombe took this opportunity to fire 595,000 into the center. Robinson released and Newcombe showed his hand to the table--, for nothing but the dummy end of a gutshot draw.
The next hand Aaron Massey opened to 250,000 from the button and was called by Newcombe out of the small. Jay Merchant three-bet to 575,000 from the big blind and Massey folded. Newcombe called and they both checked the flop.
Newcombe checked the turn and Merchant bet 575,000 more. Newcombe moved all in and Merchant released. Newcombe is now sitting around 7,700,000 in chips.
