Watson Check-Raises Two
Niveau 13
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Mike Watson was in the small blind, Steve O'Dwyer was in the big blind, and Aleksejs Ponakovs was under the gun before all three players went to a turn of 9♠10♦8♦6♣. With around 50,000 chips in the middle, the action was checked to Ponakovs, who made a bet of 19,000.
Watson then put in a raise to 66,000, after which O'Dwyer quickly folded. Ponakovs took some time before he followed suit and he let out a big sigh while he saw the pot being shipped Watson's way.
