Level 8
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
In the last hand of the night, Brian Roberts opened for 12,500 and Justin Bonomo called from the hijack. A short-stacked Paul Newey then moved all in blind from the cutoff for 82,500. The button and blinds all folded, and then both Roberts and Bonomo called.
The 
flop saw Roberts bet 40,000, Bonomo called, and then both players checked the

river. Bonomo showed the 
, which was behind the 
of Roberts. Newey then revealed the 
for two pair.
"Saved myself €25,000," a joyful Newey said after discovering he tripled up.

"Nitty Newey never would have played that," Rob Schiffbauer added.
