Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was heads up with around 3,200 in the middle and 8?A?5? on the board when Paul Newey checked from middle position. Adel Naoun bet 900 from the next seat over and Newey called.
The turn was J? and Newey check-called a bet of 1,500. The river was 10?.
Both players checked the river and turned over their cards. Newey had 5?4? for a pair of fives, but Naoun tabled K?K? to take the pot with pocket kings.
Meanwhile, Maria Konnikova has taken her seat at the same table.
