: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
It seemed that big blind Mike Watson just flatted Steve O'Dwyer's raise on the button and they got it in on the 
flop. Watson checked, O'Dwyer bet 30,000, Watson check-shoved and O'Dwyer called.
Watson: 
O'Dwyer: 
O'Dwyer trailed but a bunch of outs could pull his hand ahead. The turn and the 
river changed nothing, though.
