Watson Rivers a Double Up

Remko Rinkema

Level 12 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Sorel Mizzi raised from the button to 25,000 and Mike Watson tanked for a bit before moving all in from the small blind for 247,000. Timothy Adams was seated in the big blind, and he looked down at his cards after which he paused for a bit. Eventually Adams called and Mizzi folded.

Adams:
Watson:

The board ran out and Watson rivered an ace to stay alive. Both players did not respond at all when the ace hit on the river, but Scott Seiver pointed out that Watson would've probably been dancing in his room if this happened in an online tournament.
