Watson Doubles Through Mizzi
Level 15
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
After a raise from Jonathan Jaffe from the cutoff, both Sorel Mizzi and Mike Watson were all in in the blinds and Jaffe let them battle it out between. Watson looked to have a stack of around 900,000 in front of him.
Mike Watson: 9♠9♣
Sorel Mizzi: A♦10♠
The flop came K♣3♣K♠ to keep Watson ahead with his pocket pair of nines and the pair on the flop but the turn was the A♣ for Mizzi to hit the higher two pair. It also gave Watson a flush draw which he hit on the river as the 2♣ completed the board to double him up.
