Watkinson Doubles Up

Robert Cheung raised to 38,000, and Lee Watkinson made it 119,000. Cheung raised the pot, and Watkinson called all in for 141,000 total. A crowd of railers and reporters suddenly closed in around the table.

Cheung: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades}
Watkinson: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}

Board: {K-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {8-Hearts}

Both players remained silent and composed, although a pro-Watkinson railer went crazy shouting "YES!!!" repeatedly, as Watkinson doubled up to 297,000.
