Early one for SirWatts
The stacks are deep, and there hasn't been much action here in the first level. However, we did catch a decent one between high rollers Mike "SirWatts" Watson and Vanessa Selbst.
In the hand, Selbst opened for 1,000 from the hijack only to have Watson three-bet to 3,300 from the small blind. Selbst called, the flop fell 
, and Watson continued for 3,000. Selbst called, and then wound up calling a bet of 6,600 on the 
turn. When the 
completed the board on the river, Watson took his time before betting 14,400, which proved enough to take down the pot as Selbst casually tossed her cards to the muck.
Both Selbst and Watson have had success in high rollers recently, with the former winning the 2013 PCA $25,000 High Roller Event a few weeks back for $1,424,420 and the latter winning €1,000,000 in the €50,000 Majestic High Roller during the World Series of Poker Europe back in October.
