Cory Williams (Alva, FL) quickly became everyone's favorite player, as he sent the $200 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD) field into the money.

The hand-for hand play lasted only five hands, as the bubble elimination occurred on Table 2.  After Mitchell Tabasky opened from middle position (to 25,000), action folded around to Cory Williams, who called out of the big blind.  The two would see a flop of K♥ 8♥ 10♥, with Williams checking the action over to Tabasky.  With just over ten big blinds behind, Tabasky announced himself all-in, with Cory quickly making the call:

Tabasky: A♥ K♠ (top pair with ace-high flush draw)
Williams: 8♠ 8♣ (bottom set)

Turn: 2♦
River: A♣

The flop was surely an action one for those two hands, as neither play was going to release on the flop.  Tabasky was searching for a heart on the turn or river, or running cards to a full house, but nothing would amount for Mitchell.  He'd become the tournament's "bubble boy," the last player to leave the tournament  area without money this afternoon.

Cory Williams - 370,000 (46bb)
