Williams Stays Alive, Then Busts

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Michael Williams was nursing a severe short-stack when he moved all in from under the gun. "Almost there," the table said as action folded to Cliff Josephy in the big blind, who called.

"You're ahead, trust me," Josephy said. Williams had {10-Hearts}{2-Clubs} against Josephy's {5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. The board ran out {j-Spades}{q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Williams doubled up, hitting two pair on the river.

Williams was in the big blind the next hand and shoved over the raise of button Jeevan Nomula. Nomula called with {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}, while Williams had him dominated with {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}.

Williams wouldn't have the same luck this time as Nomula made a flush on a board of {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} and Williams made his exit. "Great attitude," the table told him as he wished them luck.

Elezra Soaring

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Eli Elezra
Eli Elezra

Eli Elezra raised to 23,000 from the hijack and from the button an opponent went all-in for 134,000. Action folded around and Elezra thought about it before saying "alright," and putting in the chips for the call.

Opponent: {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Eli Elezra: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Elezra's pair of tens was good for the whole pot. He now sits with over one million in chips.

Marc Walter: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The river came a {5-Diamonds} and Farris was unable to find any improvement via flush or two pair and he was eliminated from the tournament.

Moreno Calls With Third Pair

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

2017 Little One for One Drop champion Adrian Moreno was in the big blind facing a bet of 34,000 from the cutoff on a board of {j-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{k-Spades}{k-Clubs}. Moreno called, then both players checked the {4-Hearts} river.
