Watson Spinning Up a Stack

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

A short stack moved all in for around 9,000 from the hijack and Mike Watson called from the button. The players then turned over their hands.

Mike Watson: {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Opponent: {j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

The board ran out {3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and Watson's pair of kings took down the pot, adding to his stack and collecting a bounty chip in the process.

Madsen Notches Another Knockout

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Jeff Madsen earlier this summer

Jeff Madsen was in middle position and got stacks in before the flop against the player in the cutoff. Madsen's opponent had about 15,000 to start the hand and Madsen had him covered by a fair margin.

Jeff Madsen: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

The cutoff found himself trailing Madsen's kings and needed a lot of help from the deck to survive. The board ran out {10-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and Madsen took the pot to earn what looked like his fifth bounty of the day.

The bubble broke without hand-for-hand play and all remaining players will be getting at least a min-cash of $1,000.
