Williamson Moves to 26K
Level 6
: 100/200, 25 ante
Robert Williamson III just moved his stack up to 26,000 after busting a player from the event. He was able to get his pocket queens all in with his opponent's 
and hold up. The player did flop a flush draw on the 
flop, but the 
turn and 
river were of no help.
Elezra Busted by Black
Andy Black and Eli Elezra battled again, but this time Elezra was left with no chips in front of him. He got his money all in on a six-high flop that contained two hearts. Black held top set of sixes. The turn and river both blanked for Elezra, and he was eliminated.
