Watt Applies Max Pressure To Chip Leader

[user67765]

Simon Watt

Simon Watt raised the button to 60,000 and Gerome Guitteau called in the small blind.

Guitteau checked in the dark as the flop landed {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

and Watt fired 100,000. Guitteau then announced a check-raise to 250,000 but Watt responded by moving all in!

Suddenly we were potentially seeing the biggest pot of the tournament as our two chip leaders collided. Guitteau thought for a minute or so and then asked for the clock to be called on himself! Sixty seconds ticked down and Guitteau made a reluctant fold as Watt flashed {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

for a big draw.

Watt takes the chip lead with 1.5 million chips as Guitteau slips to 1.4 million.
