Arunas Sapitavicius opened to 100,000 from under the gun with 10♥10♦ and Maduka Meragal flat-called in the cutoff with K♣Q♣. Mike Watson came along from the big blind with 10♣9♥ and the flop of Q♥8♠2♣ was spread on the felt.
The action checked to Meragal who flopped top pair and fired out a bet of 225,000. Watson folded his straight draw but Sapitavicius stuck around for the K♠ on the turn.
