Robert Williamson opened to 70,000 preflop and was called by David Shaw on his left to see a flop of 10♣3♦J♥. Williamson continued for another 70,000, but then Shaw raised it to 180,000.

Williamson made the call and on the turn 6♣, he checked the action over to Shaw who slid out  a bet of 250,000. 

After some thought, Williamson announced he was all and Shaw snap-called to put him at risk. Williamson flipped over J♦10♦ for top two pair but he was drawing dead once Shaw tabled J♣J♠ for top set. The river was the inconsequential 4♥ and Shaw was shipped the huge pot, eliminating Williamson. 

Shaw - 1,650,000  
Williamson - 0
