Hand #31: Jesse Capps raised with {Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} from the cutoff to 85,000, and that was no longer possible as the blinds had just gone up. Capps' action was ruled a limp, and Kristin Kane moved all in for 193k from his immediate left with {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}.

Capps made the call right away for just a few extra big blinds, creating another all-in showdown.

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}{A-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Capps made a straight to send the last woman standing to the rail. There are now just four players remaining, all of which are guaranteed to take home at least $11,700.
