The tournament staff has adjusted the duration of the levels again, putting them back to 90 minutes. This will continue until they feel that the levels need to be reduced in order to finish in an adequate time period. With only one elimination taking place over the last three hours of play, it could mean a long day for the players.
Mike Watson limped in from the small blind with 8♦6♥ and Leo Worthington-Leese checked the big blind with 10♥4♦. The flop came 10♦5♦2♠ and Watson led out with a bet of 150,000. Worthington-Leese called with top pair and the 4♣ landed on the turn.
Watson sized up a bet of 600,000 on the turn with a two-way straight draw and Worthington-Leese ripped all in for 3,150,000 after making two pair. Watson quickly dumped his cards to the muck and Worthington-Leese raked in the pot.
