Koral and Watkins Trading Place

Tom Koral and Va Shon Watkins just traded places in the chip counts. Koral started things off preflop with a raise to 900 that Watkins reraised to 2,150. On a three-heart flop, {4-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {10-Hearts}, Koral checked, then check-raised all in after Watkins bet 2,525. Watkins called all in for 17,025 total with {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs} against Koral's pocket tens, {10-Clubs} {10-Spades}. The turn blanked {3-Spades} but the river {9-Hearts} filled Watkins' heart flush. Watkins now has 40,000 while Koral has fallen to 20,000.
