Czika Near the Lead
Level 42
: 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
Roland "Quina Quen" Czika was on fumes but chipped and was breathing down the tail of Mike Watson for the chip lead.
Watson opened for 1,200,000 from the small blind and Czika called from the big blind. Both players checked the 
flop before Watson check-called the 
turn. The 
river completed the board and Watson checked. Czika bet 2,217,280 and Watson went into the tank for nearly a minute before he folded.
