Sombero Makes Big Laydown

Anna Galan raised all in from under the gun for the last of her chips and Wally Sombero made the call of roughly 3,000 chips. The action then folded around to Patrick Carron in the big blind, who announced that he was all in!

Carron covered Sombero, who thought long and hard about the decision for his tournament life. As Carron casually laughed with the all-in Galan, Sombero decided to fold and flashed {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}. It seemed like a good fold, as Carron tabled {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds} to be well in front of Galan's {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

That is, until the flop fell {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}, which would've hit Sombero and also gave a glimmer of hope to Galan with her flush draw.

The turn was the {2-Hearts} and river the {3-Hearts} and Carron's kings held up to send one of the few remaining women in the field to the exit, as Carron stacks up 38,000 chips.
