Watson Beats the Flush Draws

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

On the turn of a {3-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} board, the small blind had led out for 525 before Dan Smith raised to 1,800. Mike Watson opted to cold call this bet, Paul Newey folded and the small blind also called.

The river was the {5-Spades} and all three players checked, the small blind showed {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Smith turned over {J-Clubs}{5-Clubs} but Watson had them all beat with {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.
