Shavonne Free-Falls

Shavonne Mitchell
Shavonne Mitchell
The uber-aggressive Shavonne Mitchell has been near the top of the pack all afternoon... until now. Her stack is down to 60,000 after having to lay down several hands when she was reraised. It seems like Mitchell's opponents have finally found the will to play back at her.

Mitchell has no tournament record to speak of but she's a regular in high-stakes cash games in the Atlantic City area. Here at the WSOP, she's been playing a good amount of $25-$50 NLHE and has been one of the biggest winners in that game.

Donna Delfin moved all in for 26,000. Svetlana Gromenkova reraised all in from the small blind. Everyone folded and the action was heads up.

Delfin: {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs}

The flop made Delfin stand up for the turn and river, {K-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}. The turn dashed her hopes when the {6-Hearts} landed. The river was the {7-Spades}.

Delfin was eliminated in 27th place as Gromenkova took over the chip lead.
