We found this hand with the board reading and Christina Lindley was calling a 225 bet from the player on her direct right. The river came and Lindley's opponent threw out a 1,000 bet into pot of no more than 700.
Lindley gave him a good stare and then leanded over and clearly checked out the guy's shoes. She looked at him one more time and and then threw in the call.
Her opponent smiled and said, "You've got it," and didn't want to show his hand. Lindley said she wanted to see it and he tabled for a busted straight draw. Lindley showed and took the pot.
Another player at the table asked, "Have you ever had a woman stare at you like that?" and the table all started laughing.
"What kind of shoes do you have on anyways?" another player asked.
Just goes to show that woman are always looking at your shoes.
We found David Williams' seat unoccupied and without a stack. The table informed us that after two preflop limpers Williams raised and another player jammed in one of the blinds. Williams called holding and was beaten by the jammers on a dry board.

Y'all ready for this?
