After a middle position open to 36,000, Nick Pacheco moved all for his last 65,000 chips. Lisa Bowman then shoved her larger stack, forcing a fold from the initial raiser.

Nick Pacheco: JJ All in
Lisa Bowman: AK

"You can afford to lose one," Pacheco said referring to his opponent's table-leading stack as Bowman took the lead on the 27A flop.

Pacheco answered back by hitting the J turn, and the 9 river was a blank to cement his double up.
