Jeff Williams Down to 12,500

A player opens the pot from middle position and Jeff "yellowsub86" Williams makes the call from late position. The big blind also calls and they see a flop of {6-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds}.

The big blind checks and the original raiser bets pot for 8,500. Williams takes his time before announcing that he is all in. The big blind gets out of the way and the other player makes the call for his tournament life.

Jeff Williams: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {2-Spades}

The turn is the {4-Spades} and the river brings the {A-Hearts} allowing the middle position player's hand to hold up.

After the hand, the big blind berates the winning player for raising with his hand. He doesn't seem to care and quietly rakes in the pot.

Mizrachi Uses the Post Oak Bluff

On a board of {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {8-Spades}, Robert Mizrachi puts out a small bet of 5,000 into a pot of about 50,000. His opponent looks frustrated and after a few minutes of contemplation, mucks {K-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {10-Spades} {9-Hearts} face up. He implores Mizrachi to show, asking, "Did you have it?"

Mizrachi shows three cards - {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {3-Clubs} - definitely not a full house.

Mizrachi now has about 63,000.
