Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Mike Watson raised to 45,000 on the button and was called by Carlos Spoddig in the big blind.
The flop came 
and action checked through.
The 
was the turn and Spoddig checked. Watson bet 80,000 before Spoddig put in the check raise to 200,000. Watson went into the tank before making the call.
The river was the 
and Spoddig moved all in for 220,000 effective. Watson muttered under his breath "Why did I do this to myself." as he went into the tank. Eventually Watson made the call for his tournament life but was left frustrated when Spoddig turned over 
for the nuts with the straight to eliminate Watson from the tournament.
Watson frustratedly threw his cards face down towards the dealer before apologising. Watson had 
for second pair.
