Full Tilt Talking
Robert Williamson III, Huck Seed and Justin Smith have all been drawn at the same table and all just battled in a three-bet pot. Williamson III opened from UTG and then called (along with Smith) a Seed three-bet from the next seat. The flop came and all three checked it to the river where the Texan led for 1,600. Only Seed hung around to see the river where he faced another 1,600 bet. Seed went into the tank….
Williamson III sat for a while but soon erupted into table talk with his much quieter opponent. “I think I might be winning with trips, oh lord” he mused. “It’s supposed to be hard to win a pot out-of-position against Huck but I might just do it.” The talk went quiet for thirty seconds and then Williamson’s final words were “Don’t go raising me now. That would be worse than a slow-roll”.
He needn’t have worried as Seed slipped his hands into the muck and quickly reclaimed his final two lammers. He’s on 11,200 whereas Williamson III is up to 21,000.
