Wattel Gets a Move Through
Level 15
Mike Wattel: 5x3x / Kx5x3x
Carlos Chadha-Villamarin: XxXx / 9xKx9x
Mike Wattel was one of the shortest stacks coming back from dinner and moved all-in for the last 16,000 on fifth street when Carlos Chadha-Villamarin had paired his nine. That sent his opponent in the tank and he folded, suspecting that Wattel had paired his trey.
Wattel flashed his 5x3x in the hole as he had, in fact, paired up twice to steal the pot.
