Watson Makes Move, Hits a Miracle

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

A player under the gun opened to 1,000 and Mitchell Watson three-bet to 2,000. His opponent pushed in 4,000 and Watson snap-moved all in for just under 50,000. His opponent just as quickly called for his remaining 40,000 and the two turned over their hands.

Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Mitchell Watson: {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}

The flop came down {10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Watson's opponent said "Good hand," as he stood up. A {k-Hearts} came down on the turn and Watson's opponent was still ahead with their aces.

The river changed that when the dealer flipped a {10-Hearts} to complete the board, giving Watson three dimes and more than enough to take down the pot, eliminating his opponent from the tournament.
