Mike Watson Eliminated in 4th Place ($132,800)
Level 24
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
In the very first hand to start the day today, Thomas Santerne opened to 160,000 from the cutoff and Mike Watson moved all in for 1,155,000. Santerne snap-called with a covering stack.
Mike Watson: K?J?
Thomas Santerne: K?K?
"It's going to be hard to win this." Watson commented as the 3?8?7? flop was dealt. By the 4? turn Watson was drawing dead and after the 5? river he made his exit from the tournament area while Santerne pulled nearly even with Chen for the chip lead.
