Watson Goes Thin for Value, Busts Immediately After

Ollie Garland

Niveau 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Jaspal Brar raised from the hijack to 2,400. Mike Watson in the big blind defended.

The hand checked through to the river as the full board read 4♥K♥7♥6♥J♠. Watson took the lead with a bet of 2,500 and Brar eventually called.

Watson tabled K♦8♠ for top pair, extracting value on the four-to-a-flush board.

Watson found himself all in and at risk the very next hand against Brar, with all the money in preflop.

Mike Watson: A♣Q♥
Jaspal Brar: Q♦Q♠

The board ran out 6♦K♦4♥K♣K♠ sending Watson to the rail.
