We'll Meet Again

Paul Varano eliminated Kathy Liebert heads up. Liebert was all in with {a-}{2-} but trailed Varano's {a-}{10-} and never improved.

Across the room Annette Obrestad won her heads up match as well. She opened to 7,000 with the button and her opponent called all in.

Showdown
Obrestad: {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

The {3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{j-Clubs} flop gave Obrestad the lead, and the {3-Hearts} on the turn sealed the deal. The {10-Spades} on the river was but a formality and Obrestad advanced.

Robert Mizrachi and Ylon Schwartz are also winners today and will return for Day 2.
