The flop was checked through and then Ronald Hall fired 50,000 from middle position. Only Matthew Tamura in the small blind.
When the rivers hit, the two took it to showdown where Tamura showed 8♥7♥3♠2♠ for two pair on the top and a straight on the bottom. Hall revealed Q♠J♠9♦2♦ for a better two pair on top and two pair on the bottom, meaning they chopped up the pot.
David Williams is on the same table and still has a big stack of around 1,700,000.
