Watson Sent to the Rail Courtesy of Fung
With around 100,000 in the pot and a board reading 
, Lo Shing Fung checked from the big blind and Mike Watson bet 56,000. Fung responded with a check-raised to 146,000, Watson called, and the 
completed the board on the river.
Fung, who had the bigger stack, announced that he was all in, and Watson waited for about 20 seconds before calling for for 240,000 or so. Fung rolled over the 
for the nuts, and Watson simply shook his head up and down and then mucked his hand.
Since it was an all-in situation, the dealer was obligated to expose his hand �� the 
. Watson's set was no good, and his elimination means that only one player from last year's final table (Sorel Mizzi) remains in the tournament. If you recall, Watson had finished seventh last year for �218,300.
