The flop falls Club KSpade 10Club 9 and action checks to Cates, who bets 500, with both players calling.

The turn is the Club 7 and Duckworth checks.

Cates bets 2,000 and Watson raises to 4,000, with Duckworth getting out of the way.

Cates moves his remaining stack of 16,000 all in and Watson calls and is at risk.

Watson will need to spike his full house outs to remain alive, but the river brings the Spade 5 to secure Cates the elimination.

Tim Duckworth – 23,600 (231 bb)
