Mike Watson raised to 5,500 from under the gun and Ali Imsirovic three-bet to 16,000 from the button. The blinds folded and Watson called.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, Watson checked, Imsirovic put out a 25,000-value chip and announced a bet for less than that. Watson raised it up to 31,000 for Imsirovic to make the call.

The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and Watson continued with a bet of 25,000 for Imsirovic to make the call again.

The {4-Hearts} completed the board and Watson took some time. With 5 seconds left on the shot clock, he collected all his chips and put them over the line for the all-in for 48,500. Imsirovic sat up straight, stared at the board and Watson, used two time bank cards, and then flicked in two chips for the call.

Watson tabled the {a-Spades}{j-Spades} for the flopped two pair to double up as Imsirovic held the {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} for just top pair.
