David Williams Doubles Up

David Williams was short stacked and all in after a flop of J-8-x. Williams had A-J, and his opponent had an open-ended straight draw with 10-9. The last two cards came 8-8, and Williams won the hand with a full house (eights full of jacks) to win the pot and double up to 6,800 in chips.

Jon Friedberg Chops; Layne Flack Explains the "Stand Up & Walk Away" Rule

After a flop of {10-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}, Jon Friedberg moves all in, and the player in seat 8 calls. Friedberg shows {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, but he's dominated by his opponent's set of fours ({4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}). Friedberg stands up and tells everyone that he enjoyed playing, but he gathers his things as if to leave.

Another player mentions that he still has outs if he hits one of his two queens, and Layne Flack tells him to sit down because he can also hit running spades for a chop. Sure enough, the last two cards were {J-Spades}{5-Spades}, putting a spade flush on the board and chopping the pot. Friedberg sheepisly sits back down.

Flack says, "Why doesn't anyone ever listen to me? It's the stand-up-and-walk-away rule." Apparently, as soon as Friedberg stood up to leave, he was a lock to survive the hand.
