Williams Keeping Head Above Water

Jeff Williams has just doubled up in a classic race situation. The chips were all in preflop with Williams holding the overcards with {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} against his opponent's pair with {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

The board of {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{J-Spades} gave Williams two pair and a much-needed double-up to 14,200.
