Watson Doubles and Leaves Chidwick on Fumes
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Mike Watson raised all in from early position for his stack of 215,000. It then folded to the small blind Stephen Chidwick, who three-bet all in for his stack of 250,000. Once the big blind folded, it was the two players heads up, with Watson at risk.
Mike Watson: 3?3? 
Stephen Chidwick: 2?2?
Watson found himself in a great spot to double up having the bigger pocket pair. The board ran out K?8?6?10?A? and the pocket threes of Watson were still best, giving him the double up.
Chidwick was left with just 35,000 chips after the hand, and was eliminated shortly after.
