Girl Power

Clonie Gowen
Clonie Gowen
The last female in the tournament, Clonie Gowen, is making her presence known. She raised to 4,500 preflop, then called after Ryan Daut reraised to 15,000. Gowen checked the {3-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} flop to Daut, who immediately moved all in for his last 13,000. Gowen made the call.

Gowen: {3-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {4-Hearts}
Daut: {A-Hearts} {A-Spades} {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}

Gowen had bottom pair and a wrap straight draw against Daut's unimproved aces, making Gowen a huge favorite. She blanked the turn {Q-Clubs}, but the river {6-Spades} filled her straight to eliminate Daut.

Gowen eclipsed the six-figure mark after the hand, with 115,000 chips.
