Michael Newman raised from the button, Greg Korzeniowski moved all in from the small blind for 17,500, and Newman called with Ks10c.

Korzeniowski turned over 9s9c, and he needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The board came AcAh9hJhQd, and Korzeniowski flopped a full house, nines full of aces, to win the pot and double up in chips.

Greg Korzeniowski  –  36,000  (72 bb)
Michael Newman  –  40,000  (80 bb)
