Imran Pirmohamed opened to 2,500,000 UTG. Seated right next to him, Jack Newton three-bet to 11,000,000 from the Cut-off, leaving himself with a mere 300,000 behind. Pirmohamed forced his opponent all in, and Newton naturally made the call.
Imran Pirmohamed: A♣8♦
Jack Newton: 5♠5♦
It was a classic coin flip confrontation, but just as so many times today, Pirmohamed claimed the driver’s seat, this time on the courtesy of a 3♦A♠K♥ flop. Newton received additional outs to catch up on the 4♥ turn, but the J♦ ultimately ended his tournament life. For his fifth-place finish, Newton received £7,100. Meanwhile, Pirmohamed reached the ten-digit threshold.
Imran Pirmohamed: 100,000,000
Jack Newton: 0
