Williams Wins Some Back

David Williams was struggling to gain momentum after losing most of his stack early, but has now managed to gain back plenty of chips to sit with a fairly healthy 11,000 in chips. We arrived at the table during the hand in question with a {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop out on the felt. Williams was in the big blind position and was going head-to-head with the small blind player. Williams' opponent led for 650 on the flop and Williams called.

The {a-Hearts} on the turn would see the player again lead, this time for 1,050. Another call and the {8-Hearts} would complete the board on the river. This time the player would slow down, opting to check. Williams then flicked out a bet of 1,000. The player called and Williams tabled his {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}, with the pair of nines good enough to rake in the pot.
