Watts Calls Ivanov's Hand

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Steve Watts squeezed to 145,000 from the big blind after Svetlin Ivanov had opened to 55,000 from middle position and Graham Hawkes had called from the small blind. Both Hawkes and Ivanov called.

The flop of {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs} saw Watts continue for 175,000, but Ivanov raised all-in for 363,000. Hawkes instantly folded.

"You have the Ace-Queen with the ace of clubs?" asked Watts. Silence from Ivanov.

Eventually, Watts made the call for the extra 188,000.

Steve Watts: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Svetlin Ivanov: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

Having almost called his cards out of the air, Watts stood up, scared of a club. The turn of {3-Spades} was no problem, but the {7-Clubs} on the river gave Ivanov the 1.2 million pot and Watts is now one of the short stacks after a series of pretty horrific beats.
