Williams Staying Active

David Williams has been staying active during this second level of the day. We were recently at his table to catch back-to-back hands that Williams was involved in.

The first hand we arrived at on the river of a {4-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} board. There was already over 7,000 in the pot at this point and Williams was checking to Brian Davis. A bet of 4,000 from Davis would see William check-raise to 8,000. Davis called and Williams almost immediately mucked, with Davis flipping over {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, for a turned straight.

The very next would see Williams open up the pot to 400 from the hijack. The player in the big blind made the call and a {2-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{j-Spades} flop was spread on the felt. The big blind check-called a bet of 1,350 here and then led for 2,350 on the {10-Hearts} turn. The {5-Hearts} river would see the player again lead, this time for 5,025. Williams made the call and his {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades} would find the win against his opponent's {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}.
