Williams' Roller Coaster Ride

The story of the day has been David Williams' wild ride from chip leader, to bottom feeder, and back.

Not even five hands after he dropped to 38,000, Williams made a bold preflop call with a pocket pair of sevens; his opponent showed the {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

The flop exuded a fist pump from an ecstatic Williams, who made a set when the cards fell {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. The {J-Hearts} on the turn gave his opponent new life, but it was short-lived as the river brought the {A-Diamonds}, earning Williams the checkmark.

David now has close to 65,000 chips.

Williams Takes a Hit

The UTG player raised to 5,500 and David Wililams called from late position. The flop was {J-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. The UTG player checked, Williams bet 10,000 and the UTG player called. The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and both players checked. The river was the {8-Diamonds} and both players checked again. Williams showed {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} while his opponent tabled {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for top pair, top kicker.

Williams was down to 38,000 after the hand.
