Hand #99: Mike Watson limped the button, Jared Jaffee raised to 180,000 in the big blind and Watson reraised all in for about 1.6 million. Jaffee took a deep breath and sighed before he announced a call.
Watson:
Jaffee:
"ACE!!!!!!" yelled Jaffee's rail as everyone stood up in anticipation for what was to come.
The flop came down , keeping Watson well in front with his pair of jacks. Short of an ace, the
turn was as good as it gets for Jaffee as it gave him a flush draw and an open-ended straight draw. The
river gave Jaffee an eight-high straight to lock up the victory, ending Watson's run in second place.
