Straight to the Top for Williams

Shamus

Jose "Nacho" Barbero raised from the hijack seat, and only David Williams came along from the small blind. The flop came {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

. Williams checked, Barbero bet, and Williams called. The turn was the {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

, and both players checked.

The river brought the {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

. This time Williams bet, and Barbero called. Williams showed {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

for the straight, and Barbero mucked.

Williams is at 600,000 -- in the lead at the moment -- while Barbero is the table's short stack with 220,000.
