Nguyen Can't Shake Watkinson

There was one limper in the pot ahead of Scotty Nguyen. He raised to 1,800 and was called only by Lee Watkinson, who had position on the Prince of Poker. Nguyen fired out another 2,000 on a flop of {A-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}, with Watkinson calling.

Both players checked the {5-Hearts} turn. When the river fell {6-Spades}, Nguyen tried firing another 2,000 chips. Again Watkinson called.

"I guess you got it, eh baby?" said Nguyen as he opened {J-Diamonds} {J-Spades}. Watkinson did indeed have it, winning the pot with {Q-Clubs} {q-Hearts}.
