Watabe Cracks Warburton's Kings to Double
Nivel 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Steven Warburton opened to 2,500 from the hjiack and it was folded to Kiwamu Watabe in the small blind, who shoved for hist last 6,700. Action folded back around to Warburton, who called to put Watabe at risk.
Kiwamu Watabe: K♦10♣
Steven Warburton: K♣K♠
Warburton was an overwhelming favorite to eliminate Watabe, but the Q♠J♠9♣ flop immediately improved Watabe to a straight in a complete reversal of fortune.
The 4♠ turn and 6♥ river changed nothing and Watabe doubled his short stack.
