Same Song, Next Verse

[user66118]

Va Shon Watkins is on an absolute tear. After spending much of the early part of the day very short-stacked, the online stud has doubled up twice within the last level. We joined another big pot involving Watkins just moments ago.

Walking up on the turn, we see the board reads {Q-Hearts}

. There is about 25,000 in the pot, and action is on Harold Kruger. He checks, prompting "Julian Verse" to move all in for 17,025. Kruger thinks for just one moment before calling, having Watkins covered.

Showdown:
Kruger: {A-Clubs}

Watkins:

Looking for a king or any old club, Kruger leans in close to the table to await the river card. It is black; it is a blank. The {8-Spades}

does nothing to improve Kruger, and he sends Watkins yet another double-up.

After hanging around the 5,000-chip mark all afternoon, Va Shon Watkins is now quite healthy with just over 60,000.
