Small One for Newey

On a flop of {5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}, Talal Shakerchi bet 40,000 and received a call from Paul Newey. The {10-Spades} saw Shakerchi bet 85,000, and Newey hit the tank. When he emerged after a minute or so, he tossed out a raise to 275,000. Shakerchi didn't take long to make his decision and released his hand.
