Reigning PCA Champ Mike Watson Falls Before Day 1a Dinner Break
Level 6
: 250/500, 75 ante
Last year, Mike Watson topped a field of 928 players to win the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure for $728,325. Watson was no doubt looking to also win the first PokerStars Bahamas Championship Main Event title, but his hopes of doing so were just dashed by fellow Canadian and PokerStars Qualifier Richard Proudfoot.
Watson's elimination hand escaped us, but he was kind enough to tell us about it after the fact while Proudfoot filled in some details.
As they told it, Watson got the last of his chips, of which there weren't too many, in on a 
flop holding the 
against the 
of Proudfoot.
Watson had a Royal Flush draw, but he bricked it as neither the turn nor river brought a helpful card.
