Massey Eliminated By Williams

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Aaron Massey was just seen leaving his seat and exiting the tournament room. According to Jon Williams, Massey raised from middle position to 5,500 and Williams three-bet all in for 58,800 from the big blind. Massey called off his remaining 50,000 or so chips and the two were off to the races.

Aaron Massey: {a-}{j-}
Jon Williams: {k-}{q-}

The {k-}{x-}{x-} flop came in Williams' favor and while the {j-} turn gave Massey more outs for the double up, the river came a brick and the dealer sent the pot Williams' way.
