Thorel Busts Watson on Bubble
Livello 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel opened to 85,000 under the gun and the short-stacked Mike Watson defended his big blind.
On the 2♣K♣3♠ flop, Watson check-jammed for around 280,000 versus Thorel's continuation bet of 100,000. Thorel made the call.
Mike Watson: A♣9♣ 
Jean-Noel Thorel: K♠J♥
Thorel was ahead with top pair kings but Watson had plenty of outs with his nut flush draw.
The 9♠ turn gave Watson a pair of nines to pick up some more outs, but the Q♠ river was a brick and Watson was the unfortunate player to be sent to the rail on the bubble.
All 11 players remaining are now guaranteed a minimum cash of €174,600.
