Watts Back From the Dead

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

It wasn't too long ago we caught Steve Watts with a chip stack of just 8,500. However, less than 20 minutes of play later he is up to 42,000 thanks in large part to winning a recent pot.

Watts three-bet from the small blind and received one caller. The flop came {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and he moved all in for his final 15,800. His remaining opponent made the call with {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} but was well behind the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} of Watts. The turn {4-Hearts} and river {7-Hearts} bricked off and Watts has regained a healthy amount of chips.
