Hey Gene! Do you think that Tiffany Williamson...

...is making Amarillo Slim nervous? rofl

I'll bet he was rooting for Raymer in the hand below (courtesy of www.CardPlayer.com)! He might still have to sharpen that knife though. grin Andy - Las Vegas

Greg Raymer Doubles Up Through Tiffany Williamson

The preflop details are unclear, but there were some bets and possibly a raise, when Greg Raymer went all in. It was folded around to Tiffany Williamson, who went into deep thought for many minutes to contemplate the call. Word slowly spread around the room that Greg Raymer was all in at the TV table, and the crowd at the ESPN stage quickly grew to overflow capacity. The buzz in the air was spine-tingling.

Tiffany Williamson was playing with her chips, and several times she would move a stack around, and those of us in the press thought she had called. As a relative rookie, she may not be familiar with the rules about chip movement, because there appeared to be forward motion. But nobody called it on her.

The media was talking about the hand, wondering what she was on, and everyone predicted a fold. She was faced with a similar big call earlier today, and after thinking for about ten minutes, she folded that hand.

This time, she calls.

Greg Raymer casually flips over pocket kings (Kc-Kd), and Tiffany Williamson shows Ac-Jd. The crowd isstunned, expecting her to have a stronger hand than that. But she does have an ace, and Raymer hasn't won the hand yet. Tension at the ESPN stage is at its highest level of the tournament so far. Two of the biggest crowd favorites are clashing head-to-head in a huge pot.

The flop is slowly revealed (almost card by card) to be 6s-6d-2d, and the crowd lets out a tentative sigh, unclear who they are rooting for here. The turn card is the 4c, and Williamson has to catch an ace on the last card to eliminate the defending World Series champion.

The river card is the 9c.

Greg Raymer has doubled up through Tiffany Williamson, and the cheers from the crowd imply they'd rather see a repeat champion than another "tournament rookie coming out of nowhere" story. Regardless, Tiffany Williamson still has enough chips to be comfortable.
