Williams Almost Doubles his Stack
In an unusual turn of events, Scott Bohlman accidentally limped on the button, intending to raise but not putting out enough chips, so it was ruled a limp. Umesh Babusukumar seized the opportunity with a raise to 1,100,000 from the small blind, only to face a massive three-bet from Benjamin Williams in the big blind, who committed 4,465,000—leaving just 250,000 behind.
Bohlman got out of the way, and Babusukumar made the call, but mistakenly believed Williams was already all in and tried to table his hand. The dealer quickly stopped him, reminding the players that the action was still live.
Before the flop was dealt, Babusukumar tossed in the remaining chips to officially put Williams all in, and Williams snap-called as the cards hit the felt.
Benjamin Williams: Q♦Q♥ 
Umesh Babusukumar: 10♥10♣
The board came out with J♠5♦J♣9♠7♠, and Williams' superior two pair earned him a bountiful pot.
