Keep Diggin, Watson

Andrew Watson has suddenly shot up the charts, and has over 200,000 chips. He almost had more, but he just had his pocket aces cracked by an opponent's {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

Watson opened to 4,000 in middle position, a player three-bet jammed for 17,500 on his left, and Watson snap-called.

Watson: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Opponent: {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

"You deserve one," Watson said, alluding the the fact that he's been running hot.

The flop was an interesting one: {a-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. It gave Watson a set of aces, but his opponent now had a flush draw. The {q-Clubs} on the turn was a brick, but the {5-Hearts} slammed on the river, doubling Watson's opponent.

Watson laughed the bad beat off and he has good reason to smile - he has around 205,000 chips.
