Lee Watkinson Surges Ahead

Currently contending for the chip lead is one Lee Watkinson. Raising it up to 400 preflop, Watkinson received three callers who all saw a {5-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{Q-Spades} flop. After Watkinson's bet of 1,500 was called in one spot, he then pushed all in for 4,600 on the {9-Hearts} turn and again was called.

With Watkinson flipping {K-Hearts}{K-Spades} for the overpair, his opponent could only muster {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}, which failed to improve on the {3-Spades} river.

Watkinson now on over 11,000 in chips.
