We join a hand in progress on fourth street, with both Mike Wattel and Chau Giang all in at the hands of big stack Scott Clements. The board read {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

.

Clements tabled {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

for the straight. Giang could do better though, turning over {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

for the nut Broadway straight. Wattel didn't open up his hand, but he was calling for a heart on the river.

River: {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. Wattel mucked his hand, and he has been eliminated. Giang scoops up the pot with his big straight, more than doubling up to 52,000. Clements dropped the pot, but he's still plenty healthy with 255,000.
