David Williams opened for 400 in early position and found three callers, bringing a flop of 
to the table.
A player in the big blind checked to Williams, who did the same, and the hijack tried to do just that with a bet of 600. One player mucked, but both the big blind and Williams came along to see the turn come 
.
After the big blind and Williams tapped the table for a second time, the hijack continued to fire away, this time for a bet of 1,200. Undeterred, the big blind raised it up to 2,700, and Williams didn't hesitate before shipping his last 3,150 into the middle.
The original bettor appeared flummoxed by this development, and he asked for a count of Williams' stack before sliding out the requisite chips for the call. With the action back on him after being check-raised, the big blind was priced in to continue, and he called as well.
On the 
river, both opponents checked down, and there was a brief standoff while all three players waited for each other to table a winner.
"Kings," announced the hijack player while tabling 
, prompting an instant muck from the big blind.
Williams was not impressed, however, and he coolly revealed the 
for trips on the turn. With that, Williams tripled his stack to begin the fifth level of play, and the win came at a great time, as late registration and reentry for this event ended at the conclusion of the last break.
