More from Table 15

Robert Williamson III
Robert Williamson III
The all-ins keep coming from table 15.

On a flop of {10-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {4-Clubs} , Robert Williamson III was all in and Daniel Negreanu had him covered.

Williamson showed: {10-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs}
Negreanu showed: {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {10-Spades} {5-Hearts}

Negreanu had top two pair but Williamson had plenty of outs to take the lead.

The turn was the {2-Spades} and the river was the {6-Spades}, giving Williamson the better two pair.

Williamson now sits with 44,000, while Negreanu takes a step back to 31,000.

Chips A-Hoy

To give you an idea of how many rebuys there have been at Table 15, here's a count of the chips there at the moment:

Phil Hellmuth -- 49,000
Robert Williamson III -- 44,000
Erick Lindgren -- 33,000
Daniel Negreanu -- 31,000
Sirous Jamshidi -- 21,000
Erik Seidel -- 20,000
Daniel Alaei -- 16,000
Alex Kravchenko -- 8,7000

Of course, in the time it took to type that, all that has changed.

Ouch

Phil Hellmuth picked up J-J-x-x on the button. He wanted to play that one. Erick Lindgren had {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{5-Diamonds} in the small blind. Why not?

The flop came {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, and Lindgren got the rest of his chips in the middle vs. Hellmuth. A turn of {2-Diamonds} and a river of {7-Diamonds} gave Lindgren a backdoor flush. And Hellmuth a little ball of pain right between the eyes.

Glen Chorny Eliminated

EPT Monte Carlo champion Glen Chorny was eliminated when he found himself all in preflop against an unknown opponent.

Chorny: {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {2-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs} {K-Spades} {J-Spades} {10-Clubs}

The board came {9-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} and Chorny opted not to rebuy after falling to his opponent's straight.
