Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Oleg Vasylchenko opened to 18,000 from early positon, and Magnus Carlsen called from the hijack. Mike Watson then three-bet to 72,000 from the cutoff, prompting Vasylchenko to make it 180,000. Carlsen folded, but Watson stuck around.

Vasylchenko continued for 90,000 on the J?10?2? flop and was called. He then check-called for 145,000 on the 6? turn. The 3? completed the board, and Vasylchenko once again took the betting lead by firing out 50,000. As the shot clock nearly hit zero, Watson raised to 401,000, leaving just 1,000 behind. Vasylchenko used up a time bank, which was the first one for the pot, and folded.


On the following hand, Leo Worthington-Leese opened to 16,000 from early position before Magnus Carlsen reraised to 46,000 on his direct left. Watson, now in the hijack, four-bet to 92,000 and both of his opponents folded.
