We just reported that ElkY was getting no action, now he has been getting too much.
Michael Watson opened to 12,000 from under the gun and his only customer was Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier to his direct left. The flop came down and Watson made a continuation bet of 20,000 and was instantly called by the Triple Crown winner.
The turn saw another ace make an appearance, the and Watson bet 50,000 and again ElkY snap-called. The on the river was greeted with a check from Watson, a bet of 88,000 from ElkY and an all-in bet of 264,000 from Watson.
ElkY paused for a few moments before announcing, "I call."

Michael Watson made it 24,000 to play from the button, which forced Richard Toth to fold in the small blind. Tristan Wade asked Watson how many chips he had and when Watson said "around 500," Wade three-bet to 69,000. Watson made the call and whilst the dealer was putting out the flop, Wade re-checked his holecards.
Flop: - Wade lead into Watson with a bet of 76,000. Watson considered his options and made the call.
Turn: - The king on the turn was greeted with an 88,000 bet. Watson again took some time to come to a decision, eventually calling.
River: - Wade now checked to Watson who sat completely motionless for almost a minute before moving two stacks of black chips over the betting line, worth 200,000. Wade called quickly but mucked when he saw Watson held for a full house.
"You could have stacked me," said Wade
Dan Smith and Scott Seiver are party of the small but vocal rail supporting Michael Watson.
They have the nickname "Mad Dog" for their pal and are trying their best to get get Paul Neaves (The TD and announcer) to call Watson by his nickname. He resisted for a while but has softened and dropped the odd one in there to make the crowd go wild!
