Megan Milburn shoved over a button raise from Pat Knoll, and Knoll made the call.

"That's how tilted I am," Milburn said with a laugh.
Knoll had her opponent dominated, and that lead only increased when the flop came , giving Knoll top pair. The turn opened up the chance of a backdoor flush for Milburn, but she found only an inferior pair on the river.
Pat Knoll claimed victory in the $300 buy-in Ladies Deep Stack No-Limit Hold'em tournament here at the Borgata Winter Poker Open. She took down a field of 134 to win a $10,138 first-place prize. She adds those winnings to a recorded career total of $1,672.
The one-day tournament lasted from noon until just after 5 a.m., when Knoll's held up against runner-up Megan Milburn's . Heads-up play was quickly reached from the final six players, as stacks were relatively short throughout the final table. Once there, Milburn ran up a dominating stack before fizzling out heads up.
