button in SafariWilliams Takes Sizeable Pot Off Kerr
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Robert Kerr opened to 4,000 on the button and was called by Terry Williams from the small blind.
The flop came 6♥2♥9♦, and both players checked.
Williams led for 4,500 on the J♥ turn, but Kerr responded with a raise to 15,500. Williams called.
The 5♠ river was knuckled by Williams. Kerr followed through with a bet of 45,000. Williams gave it some consideration before he put out the call.
Kerr showed Q♠10♣ for a missed straight draw. Williams had the made hand with K♠J♠ for a pair of jacks to claim the healthy pot and take the chip lead on Day 1a.
