Williams Wins in Incredible Fashion

Level 7 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

David Williams had just doubled through Yevgeniy Timoshenko the hand prior and was close to even. Timoshenko used his last lammer to load up. Williams then moved all in on the next hand and Timoshenko called.

Williams: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Timoshenko: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}

The board ran {10-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {8-Spades} {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs} and Williams crippled Timoshenko - left with about 7,000.

The next hand after that Timoshenko shoved blind and Williams called blind. Williams turned up {8-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} and Timoshenko only turned over one card - {3-Spades}. They asked the dealer to run it and they would sweat Timoshenko's last card.

The board ran {K-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {A-Hearts} and as things stood Williams was ahead with eight high. Any card higher than an eight would Timoshenko the hand. He turned over his last card to find....

{2-Clubs}.

Timoshenko was eliminated and Matt Jarvis was eliminated at another table.

Pantling: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Powell: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}

The board ran {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Spades}{q-Clubs}{8-Clubs} missing both players.

Williams Fighting Back

Level 7 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

We just noticed David Williams had cashed in his last lammer when we were away from the tables. He just doubled up through Yevgeniy Timoshenko when Williams got his money in on the turn. The board showed {2-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {3-Diamonds}. Williams check-shoved the turn and Timoshenko called.

Williams turned up {Q-Clubs} {3-Clubs} and Timoshenko had {J-Clubs} {6-Clubs}. The river sent the pot to Williams when it fell {Q-Hearts}. Williams has enough chips to comfortably play but Timoshenko still has two rebuy lammers behind.

Pantling Doubles, Racener Through

Andrew Pantling is back in his match with George Wolff after a big double-up.

He raised to 8,000 and then gave good thought to calling all-in for 74,000 after Wolff shoved on him.

Wolff: {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Pantling: {j-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}{k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} to make the Canadian a full house.

As this hand was playing out Vojtech Ruzicka busted to John Racener on a nearby table.
