Stewart Newman

The money bubble hit right as the blinds went up and the tournament went into hand-for-hand mode. It didn’t take long to burst that bubble.

On one table, Stewart Newman was all in for 59,000 against Fred Dabus after the 7s4h2s flop. Dabus called and they held up the action while the rest of the tables finished their action.

On the neighboring table, Barton Taylor put Jacobo Fernandez all in with the board reading AcKdQhAd and Fernandez called at risk. The rest of the tables completed their hands and both tables ran out the boards.

Newman was ahead with top set 7c7d against Dabus’ flush draw KsQs. The 6d turn was safe for Newman but Dabus filled his flush on the Js river to send Newman out.

Fernandez was in trouble against Taylor with AsJd dominated by QcQd and Fernandez had seven river outs to stay in the game. The 7d river was a blank and Fernandez was sent out as well.

Newman and Fernandez chopped up 100th place money and each collected $308.
