on the board, Joe Elpayaa put 50,000 in the pot from the big blind. Punkie Nelson, in the small blind, would be at risk for her tournament life with the call. Nelson indeed did make the call.

Elpayaa was ahead with two pair, but Nelson still had life with a flush draw and bottom pair combo. The river
sealed the win for Elpayaa, however, who moved up to over 100,000 chips.
