Williams Leaves Gaubert on Fumes
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Starr Williams went all-in from early position for 87,000 before Jeremy Gaubert followed with a jam of his own from the next seat over. Williams went to a showdown against Gaubert at risk.
Starr Williams: 7♥7♠
Jeremy Gaubert: A♣K♣
Gaubert needed to hit one of his overcards to get rid of Williams. The flop brought a king, but it came with a seven when the flop fanned out K♦7♦4♠, giving Williams a set of sevens and keeping him in the lead.
The K♠ turn offered some intrigue as Gaubert was still drawing live with one card to go.
Williams would hold on the 2♥ river to score the double-up and leave Gaubert with little to work with moving forward.
