Watson Flops a Set and Doubles

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Mike Watson pushed all in on a board reading {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Spades} when his opponent bet 28,400 into a fairly large pot. Watson's opponent called and the cards were flipped:

Watson: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Opponent: {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

Watson had flopped a set while his opponent had flopped two pair. Only four outs would eliminate Watson. The river {3-Diamonds} was not one of them and Watson doubled up to 307,000.
