Watson Overtakes Grieco
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Nicola Grieco raised to 10,000 in the cutoff and Mike Watson reraised to 36,000 out of the small blind. Grieco called and the flop of J?8?2? was spread on the felt.
Watson led out with a bet of 45,000 and Grieco mulled it over for a minute before dispatching his cards. Watson became the new table captain and one of the leaders in the entire field.
