Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action was picked up on a flop of 9♠3♥9♣ with around 165000 in the middle. Thomas Watson had bet out for 120,000, but his opponent in the hand, Salvatore Giannola, was sitting with an all in chip in front of him, alongside his stack of 335,000. Watson went deep into the tank, but eventually found the call.
Salvatore Giannola: Q♥Q♠ 
Thomas Watson: J♦J♣
Watson had been pipped by one, and couldn't improve on either the 7♦ turn or K♣ river, leaving him with just 150,000 chips. He bust shortly after.
