William John Dancing His Way To The Big Stack

We arrived at William John's table with the board reading {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}.

He bet 10,000, one player folded, and another called to see the {Q-Clubs} turn. John checked to his opponent who bet 14,000, but that didn't shake John who called to see the {8-Clubs} river.

It was at this point where things got a bit confusing, as John picked up a few orange chips and tossed them back and forth in his hands. He then put them back on the table and was on the verge of betting 25,000 before he stood up out of his chair and started dancing to the music he was listening to.

As he was dancing, he announced all in and happily showed {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} when his opponent folded.
