Savage Call by Sir Watts
Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
Mike Watson just showed some true poker guts. The Canadian sicko was in an early position, playing a heads-up pot against the player in the big blind.
They were on the river of the 
board with roughly 30,000 in the middle. The big blind moved all in, covering Watson's stack of 31,500.
Watson processed the situation, and while he didn't have any ace in his hand, he had all aces up his sleeve. More precisely, he had good heart, calling with just 
.
Watson's instincts proved correct, as his opponent had only 
for a missed open-ender, rewarding Watson's savage call with glory and a double.
It took some hard work to get the chips, but Watson worked his way to the 95,000 he's now controlling.
