Chip Chop
Cylus Watson opened for 255,000 and received calls from Greg Merson and Percy Mahatan on the button and big blinds respectively. The 

flop saw Mahatan bet 325,000, Watson raise to 890,000, Merson folded, and Mahatan make the call.
Both players then checked the
turn, bringing about the
on the river. Mahatan led out for 1.1 million, Watson called, and the hands were tabled. Mahatan showed 
for a straight, and Watson rolled over 
for the same straight. Chop it up.
