Watt Applies Max Pressure To Chip Leader

Simon Watt
Simon Watt
Simon Watt raised the button to 60,000 and Gerome Guitteau called in the small blind.

Guitteau checked in the dark as the flop landed {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Watt fired 100,000. Guitteau then announced a check-raise to 250,000 but Watt responded by moving all in!

Suddenly we were potentially seeing the biggest pot of the tournament as our two chip leaders collided. Guitteau thought for a minute or so and then asked for the clock to be called on himself! Sixty seconds ticked down and Guitteau made a reluctant fold as Watt flashed {K-Spades}{Q-Spades} for a big draw.

Watt takes the chip lead with 1.5 million chips as Guitteau slips to 1.4 million.
