Mark Herm raised from the small blind and Mike Watson called from the big blind.

The flop came down {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} and Herm continued for 53,000. Watson called to see the {3-Hearts} turn where Herm bet 90,000. Watson called after a few moments and the {5-Hearts} river completed the board. Herm tanked for a bit then bet 103,000 and was quickly called by Watson. Herm tabled {A-Spades}{8-Hearts} for a flush, but was bested by Watson's {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a better flush.

A few hands later with the board reading {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, Xiao Peng check-called 175,000 from Watson. The {A-Spades} river completed the board and Peng check-called 350,000. Watson tabled {K-Spades}{3-Spades} for trip kings, besting Peng's holding to win the pot.
