Lee Watkinson opened for 27,000 from middle position and cleared the field all the way around to Roch Cousineau in the big blind. He thought for a good thirty second before three-betting, Watkinson four-bet all in for 67,000, and Cousineau called the little bit extra.

Showdown
Watkinson: {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Cousineau: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The {5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop gave Cousineau a flush draw, though that wouldn't be what won him the hand. Instead, the {9-Spades} appeared on the turn, followed by the {9-Diamonds} on the river, and Cousineau's five ended up being good enough to win the pot.

Meanwhile, Matthew Wood followed Watkinson out the door in 24th place.
