Kuo Eliminated in Fifth Place

Kitty Kuo was crippled and than eliminated from this heat. She first lost with {A-}{Q-} versus the {A-}{K-} from Byron Kaverman and was left with 1,660 chips by 1k/2k blinds.

In the next hand she doubled with {A-Clubs}{9-Spades} against the {K-Spades}{10-Spades} from Scott Ball when the board ran out {8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. But she was eliminated in the next hand.

Kaverman raised with {A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} from the under the gun position. Jason Mercier folded {Q-Spades}{K-Clubs} and Kuo made the call from the big blind holding {K-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

She needed help to stay alive but the {8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}-board didn't provide the help she was looking for.

Kuo scores one point for the San Francisco Rush.
