Good Flop for Watson Proves to Not be Enough
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Sam Greenwood opened to 2,500 from under the gun and was called by Steve O'Dwyer on the button. Mike Watson three-bet to 12,500 in the small blind and Greenwood responded with a four-bet to 26,000. O'Dwyer got out of the way and Watson called.
The flop came 
and Watson check-called a bet of 11,000 from Greenwood. The 
paired the board on the turn and Watson checked again. Greenwood moved all in and Watson didn't hesitate before calling off his last 45,000 chips.
Watson flipped over 
for a pair and a flush draw but Greenwood held 
for the best hand at the time. The 
on the river bricked out and Watson was the first casualty of the day.
