Watson Eliminated by Hammond
Level 15
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Mark Hammond raised to 25,000 on the button and Mike Watson three-bet to 100,000 in the small blind. The initial raiser asked for the stack size of Watson, who carefully cut out the 470,000 he had behind. Hammond then pushed all-in with the covering stack and Watson quickly called.
Mike Watson: 
Mark Hammond: 
The inferior pocket pair found no help on the 
runout and Watson then redeemed the Mystery Bounty he had kept until now, collecting €25,000 for a small profit in this event.
