Grey Day for Brown

[user46392]

Jamie Kerstetter shoved with {J-Clubs}

and got called by Shelly Brown holding a way-in-front pocket tens, but an outdrawy {3-Clubs}

board later and Brown was down to just 2,000.

All in on the small blind next hand, her {3-Clubs}

was in pretty bad shape against a raiser's {Q-Clubs}

, and she duly busted out when the board first gaveth and then did taketh away.

Board: {3-Spades}

Level: 17

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Ante: 500

Can She Kick It? Yes She Kantor!

[user46392]

Just before the break, Alya Nazarali raised to 15,000 under the gun, only for Anna Kantor to go all in for 100,000. Nazarali thought about it for a while before deciding she liked her chances -- but it was the wrong decision and she is busto.

Nazarali: {10-Hearts}

Kantor:

Board: a ten-less {6-Hearts}

Kantor, meanwhile, is up to a very healthy 177,000.

Withers: {A-Hearts}

Rios:

Board: a non-binking {7-Hearts}
