Shirley Williams Gets Respect

[user108095]
[user108095]
Shirley Williams min-raised to 500 in early position and action checked around the table. A player in middle position contemplated his action for nearly a minute, before finally mucking his hand.

When Williams took down the pot, he said, "I think were racing or I was behind." Williams asked what he folded, and when he said ace-queen, she laughed, claiming she had ace-king.

No matter what they were really holding, both players seemed satisfied enough with how the hand played out, and Williams is sitting with about 6,000 chips.
