Thuy Kawano kept her identity a mystery on day 1, but having made the money and recently doubled up from a short stack, "TK" agreed to a photograph after her flopped set of sevens coolered Robert Fortuno's top two pair of kings and tens on a

Kawano is still somewhat short, but she, along with the other four women remaining in the field are all still alive.
