Newton Drops Two in a Row
Level 28
: 50,000/100,000, 150,000 ante
Maxx Coleman raised to 225,000 on the button and Thomas Newton called in the big blind. Both players took one.
Newton checked and Coleman checked behind, winning the pot with a jack-ten-nine.
The next hand, Newton raised to 420,000 in the small blind and Yuri Dzivielevski defended. They again took one and checked.
"Pair. Sixes," Newton dejectedly said. Dzivielevski showed an ace to take the pot as Newton has seen his chip stack nearly cut in half during this level.
