All folded to Pat Pezzin on the button, who raised to 24,000. Williams, in the small blind, took his time before counting out his reraise to 75,000. Bonomo then reraised all in from the big blind. Pezzin folded. Williams had a big decision to make. He sat hunched over his chips for several minutes. He looked over at Bonomo's chips. He had Bonomo covered, but would be risking a high percentage of his chips should he make the call. Finally, Williams decided to pick another battle and folded.

The action moved along too rapidly during that limit round for us to update chip counts. David Rheem hasn't been involved in too many pots thus far -- although it looks like he's getting into one here with Roland de Wolfe -- and still maintains his chip lead. We'll get you a new count shortly. Stay tuned for the big hand with de Wolfe and Rheem!
