abuse broadband at work ....
6.32pm Michael Watson moves his short stack in pre-flop, attacking the other short stack in front of David Benyamine. Watson has found aces, Benyamine has K-J and calls. Benyamine picks up a double belly buster on the turn but it doesn't come - and, in fact, Watson has Benyamine covered so the Frenchman is out.
Final board was 7 8 10 Q 7
Kagawa opens from early position and Watson moves another 72,000 in. Kagawa is essentially playing for his stack but reraises all in. Watson has to call and has A-K versus the Japanese's A-Q. The miracle flush or queen does not come and he is out. Watson has knocked out each of the three players to go so far, leaving a table entirely comprised of north Americans. Watson is up to 349,000.
A 4 2 4 (could've been a 2) J
You would think Benyamine would have learned to stay away from Watts...

Disappointed in the 2 minutes that I watched that Scotty isn't acting like a total doucebag again...
KQ vs 55
Scotty hit his 2 pair, turn and river he's back in the game.
Mike 4/4
