Mike Watson Fills Up to Send Jimmy Guerrero Home

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 600 ante

Action folded around to Mike Watson in the small blind and he slid forward a tower of chips, clearly putting Jimmy Guerrero to the test for his remaining 25,000 in chips. Guerrero slowly peeled his cards and said, "Oh that's a good one!" and eventually called.

Guerrero was at risk with {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} while Watson had {8-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

The flop came {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Watson took a commanding lead with two pairs. Guerrero could hit a heart for a flush or running cards for trips or two pairs to improve. The turn, however, was the {8-Diamonds}, and Watson made a full house to leave Guerrero drawing dead to the {2-Clubs} on the river.
