The flop came 10♦5♣2♠, the small blind checked, Watson bet 3,500, Gannon called, and the small blind got out of the way.

The turn landed the 3♣ and Watson slowed down with a check. Gannon fired out a bet of 6,100 and Watson called, bringing the 2♦ river.

Watson checked again and Gannon moved all in for 11,500 to put himself at risk. Watson found the call and tabled Q♣10♣ for two pair, tens and deuces, besting the K♣Q♦ of Gannon.

Gannon elected to rebuy for a fresh 30,000 starting stack.
