Steve Watts is out of the 888Poker London Live Main Event after getting all of his chips into the middle with top set and still being behind.

Pre-flop, Watts raised from early position with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} to 1,900 out of a stack of 20,000. Jamal Gormati in the next seat called, and the two men were heads-up to a flop of {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Watts' c-bet was called, but on the turn {10-Diamonds}, his bet was raised and he called all-in and slightly covered.

Gormati had flopped the nuts, with {J-Spades}{10-Spades} . Watts had a redraw to a full house, but the board didn't pair on the {6-Hearts} river and Gormati almost doubled his stack in sending Watts home.

Elsewhere, Andy 'dawhiteninja' Wool has gone home after tweeting his regret at trying to bluff Terry Jordon.
