Watson and Meragal Clash in the Blinds

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Mike Watson limped in from the small blind with A♣2♦ and Maduka Meragal raised to 140,000 in the big blind with K♦10♣. Watson clicked it back to 400,000 and Meragal instantly called.

The flop came A♠Q♦6♣ and Watson led out with a bet of 175,000. Meragal quickly called and the 5♥ landed on the turn. Watson checked this time and Meragal splashed in a bet of 215,000. Watson called and the 6♦ paired the board on the river.

Watson checked once more and Meragal fired another bet of 355,000. Watson looked him up with two pair and the queen-kicker on the board to scoop the pot.
