Williams Doubles Up Through Ahn
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Cy Williams moved all in from the big blind for 255,000. Paul Ahn moved all in as well, for a bit north of 3,000,000. Christophe Panetti took some time, but eventually made the reluctant lay down, letting Ahn and Williams showdown.
Cy Williams: 
Paul Ahn: 
After their hands were tabled, Ahn asked Panetti if they'd have been flipping, to which Panetti told him no, he would have been ahead with ace-jack offsuit.
The board came 
, pairing Williams' jack on the turn, putting him out in front, and securing him the pot and double up, taking a chunk out of Ahn's stack, which remains one of the biggest in the field.
