Watson Loses a Bit; Carrel Trending Downward
Mike Watson, who shed his luscious mustache from the €50K Super High Roller, opened for 500 from the cutoff and received a call from Slovakia's Adrej Kostka in the small blind. Charlie Carrel came along from the big, and it was three-way action to the 
flop.
Two checks saw Watson bet 800, only Kostka called, and the dealer burned and turned the 
, which both players checked. When the 
completed the board on the river, Kostka, who qualified for this event via a live satellite, bet 875. Watson thought for a minute before tossing in a call, but mucked just as soon as Kostka tabled the 
for a pair of aces.
Meanwhile, it appears Carrel, who took the early chip lead when he sent Craig McCorkell home as the first elimination of the day, is trending downward as he's lost a big chunk since the last time we checked in on him.
