Watson Retakes the Lead

Level 24
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Mike Watson raised to 50,000 on the button and Mark Herm called from the big blind to see a flop.
Herm checked, Watson bet 50,000, Herm check-raised to 119,000 and Watson called. The turn followed and Herm bet 205,000. Watson called, the
river completed the board and Herm checked after about 90 seconds. Watson took some time as well before he bet 250,000, sending Herm into the tank for about two minutes before he called.
Watson tabled for trip sevens, Herm mucked and Watson collected the pot.
