Watson Binks a Queen; Cracks Bucky's Aces

Vladimir Troyanovskiy opened to 37,000 from the hijack, Mike Watson three-bet to 90,000 on the button, and Shawn Buchanan four-bet to 161,000 from the small blind. Troyanovskiy quickly folded, and Watson tanked for over a minute before moving all in for 574,000. Buchanan snapped it off.

Watson: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Buchanan: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

The {6-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop changed little, but the {q-Diamonds} turned, giving Watson a set of queens. The {8-Spades} bricked on the river, and Watson shipped a massive double to over 1.2 million chips.

Buchanan is left with just 70,000.
