They checked to the turn of a {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{K-Hearts} board where Watson bet 150,000. Jaffee called, the {J-Hearts} river completed the board and both players checked. Watson showed {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Jaffee tabled {K-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and they chopped up the pot.

Hand #79: Watson raised to 150,000 on the button and Jaffee called.

The flop fell {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Jaffee checked to Watson who bet 160,000. Jaffee check-raised to 405,000, Watson called, and the {A-Clubs} landed on the turn. Jaffee fired 780,000, Watson slid in calling chips after about 30 seconds and the {5-Hearts} river completed the board. Jaffee shoved for 1.885 million and Watson quickly folded.

Hand #73: Watson opened for 125,000, Jaffee flatted, and the flop fell {10-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Jaffee checked to Watson, who obliged with a bet of 130,000, but Jaffee popped it to 290,000 to force the fold.

Hand #74: Jaffee opened to 125,000, Watson flatted, and the two saw the flop come down {9-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Watson then check-called a bet of 165,000 to peel the {q-Diamonds} on the turn. Watson checked a second time and then called when Jaffee continued for 320,000.

Hand #66: Jared Jaffee raised to 125,000 on the button and Mike Watson called from the big blind. They checked to the river of a {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} board where Jaffee bet 140,000. Watson folded and Jaffee picked up the pot.

Hand #69: Jaffee received a walk.

Hand #70: Jaffee raised to 125,000 on the button and Watson three-bet all in for 1.255 million. Jaffee confirmed the amount before he called.

A chop was likely, but the flop fell {5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Watson still led, while Jaffee picked up a wheel draw. The {8-Diamonds} turn added some chop outs, but the {7-Clubs} river gave Watson the double up as his six kicker played.
