Williams' Roller Coaster Ride

The story of the day has been David Williams' wild ride from chip leader, to bottom feeder, and back.

Not even five hands after he dropped to 38,000, Williams made a bold preflop call with a pocket pair of sevens; his opponent showed the {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

The flop exuded a fist pump from an ecstatic Williams, who made a set when the cards fell {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. The {J-Hearts} on the turn gave his opponent new life, but it was short-lived as the river brought the {A-Diamonds}, earning Williams the checkmark.

David now has close to 65,000 chips.
