Michael Newman (right) folds the river to Steve McKoy (left)

With a combined 12 tournament wins at the Seminole Hard Rock, it would be tough to find a pair as accomplished under this roof as Michael Newman and Steve McKoy. They’re seated next to eachother in Seat 1 and 2 at Table 36 and recently played a small pot.

There was preflop action with McKoy in the cutoff and Newman on the buttom. McKoy checked the flop and Newman bet2,500. McKoy called. Both players checked the turn. The river fell and McKoy lead for 3,000. Newman quickly mucked and McKoy dragged the pot.

For Newman, the pot was inconsequential as his stack remained at over 115,000. McKoy’s stack was also strong sitting at just under 85,000 after the hand.
