Newton Doubles Again

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

All of the chips got into the middle on a flop of {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{10-Spades} with action between Michael Rankins, who was under the gun, and David Newton in early position. Rankins covered.

Michael Rankins: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
David Newton: {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Both players hit the flop hard and Rankins found his top two pair up against Newton's straight, putting Newton in great shape for another double. He needed to fade Rankins' outs to a full house and did just that as the turn {7-Diamonds} and river {4-Spades} completed the runout.
