Newell Flops the World
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Fausto Tantillo bet 13,000 from the hijack and was called by the cutoff, small blind and Jonathan Newell in the big blind.
The monotone flop of 7?4?2? encouraged Newell to move all in and covered the three remaining players. Tantillo folded, the cutoff called for 160,000 and the small blind folded.
Cutoff: 7?7?
Jonathan Newell: J?10?
The cutoff's set of sevens was behind Newell's flopped flush. The board did not pair as the 9?8? completed the board and Newell dragged in the pot.
