Watson Climbing, Bedell Doubles Up
On a board reading 
, Mike Watson led out for 25,000 from the big blind into a pot of around 30,000. Rob Hollink was his opponent on the button who made the call. The river brought the 
and Watson made a small bet of 20,000 which Hollink called. Watson tabled 
and Hollink mucked.
In the next hand, the action folded to Kristina Holst on the button who shoved all in for 114,000. Watson asked for a count but folded and Tom-Aksel Bedell mulled it over in the big blind before making the call for his last 74,000.
Holst tabled 
which was ahead of Bedell's 
. The flop came 
and Holst's king-high was still best. The 
gave Holst two pair on the turn but it didn't mean much with Bedell still having two overcards and a flush draw. The 
dropped on the river to give Bedell a better two pair and a full double up.
