Williamson’s Aggression Pays Off
Peter Williamson raised to 125,000 from under the gun, prompting the action to fold to a player in the big blind, who made the call.
The dealer placed 5?2?3? on the board, which the big blind checked. Williamson methodically counted out 170,000 from his stack and pushed it forward. His opponent made the call.
The 10? hit the turn, which the big blind checked. Williamson took a moment to study the board, and then reached down with both hands and pushed the rest of his stack forward as an all-in bet.
His opponent leaned back in his chair, glancing repeatedly at Williamson, who didn’t flinch. The opponent went in the tank for a little more than a minute, studying the board and counting his own stack, which barely covered Williamson, before folding.
“Did you have a pair?” the player in the big blind asked.
Williamson peeked down at his cards, then looked to his opponent with a wide grin without giving a verbal response as he tossed his hand to the middle of the table.
