and Mike Watson completed to 20,000. "Miami" John Cernuto raised to 40,000, and once Kihara folded, Watson called.
Watson bet fourth and Cernuto called. On fifth, Watson checked, Cernuto bet 40,000 and Watson announced a raise as Cernuto committed his final 3,000. Each player's board ran out as follows:
Watson:
