Williams Eliminated in Cooler

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

PokerNews didn't catch the hand that spelled the end of the run for David Williams, but players at his table were kind enough to relay the details.

Williams and another player got it all in preflop. Williams held ace-jack against his opponent's ace-queen, and his elimination seemed imminent. The {10-}{8-}{6-} flop didn't change much, but the {j-} on the turn gave Williams a pair and moved him out in front, in position for a double up. Then, a {q-} hit on the river, to give his opponent the better pair, and eliminate the 2004 Main Event runner up.

Williams had been entertaining the table for some time, as he had a live stream of the Main Event open on his iPad and was providing commentary.
