Petrangelo Doubles Through Watson
Level 15
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Pieter Aerts opened to 50,000 from middle position and was called by Nick Petrangelo in the cutoff and Mike Watson in the big blind.
On the 4♠Q♠6♣ flop, Watson and Aerts checked to Petrangelo, who put out a bet of 55,000. Watson called and Aerts folded.
The K♦ rolled off on the turn and Watson check-called a bet of 245,000 from Petrangelo.
On the 7♦ river, Watson checked for a third time. Petrangelo put out a bet of 400,000, leaving himself a single 5,000 chip behind. Watson moved all in and Petrangelo called.
Watson showed K♠6♠ for two pair, but Petrangelo had K♥Q♥ for the higher two pair, sending him a chunky pot.
