Paul Newey Doubles Through Cary Katz

Level 12 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante
Paul Newey

Rick Salomon raised to 425,000 from the hijack, then Cary Katz three-bet to 1,200,000 from the cutoff. Alfred De Carolis was on the button, and he studied Katz's stack for a minute before electing to fold. Paul Newey was in the small blind, and he goes into the tank. After thinking over his options, he moved all in for 2,160,000. Salomon quickly folded, and Katz reluctantly called.

Katz: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Newey: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}

The flop fell {j-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, giving Newey top set and a virtual stranglehold on the hand. The turn was the {10-Clubs}, giving Katz outs to a straight, but the river was the {2-Clubs}, a complete blank. Newey won with his set and doubled up.
