Dang Takes Charge

Yen Dang
Yen Dang

A player raised to 3,600 from under the gun, and Barbara Rega called from one seat over. J.J. Liu called as well from the cutoff seat, as did Yen Dang in the big blind.

The four players saw a flop come {4-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Dang checked, Rega bet 8,000, and all three of Rega's opponents called. The turn was the {10-Hearts}. This time it checked to Rega who pushed her last 7,700 forward, and Liu called behind her. That's when Dang reraised to 27,700, getting a call from the original raiser and a fold from Liu.

The river brought the {Q-Diamonds}, and when Dang checked her lone remaining opponent pushed all in, and Dang called with the 33,200 she had left. Dang turned over {J-Spades}{10-Clubs} for two pair, which was better than her opponent's {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} as well as Rega's {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}.

Rega is out, and with that huge pot Dang becomes our new chip leader, soaring to 186,000.

Vark Vanquished, de la Cerra Adds More

Liina Vark just found herself all in and at risk holding {4-Hearts}{4-Spades} versus the {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts} of Jana de la Cerra. The board came {9-Spades}{2-Spades}{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}, and Vark is out. Meanwhile, de la Cerra adds still more to her chip-leading stack.

River King Delights de la Cerra

Jana de la Cerra
Jana de la Cerra

A player raised to 3,700 from the cutoff, then Brandon Uhl pushed his short stack all in from the button and Jana Delacerra called from the big blind. After some thought the original raiser folded, showing {A-}{K-} as she did.

Uhl showed {A-Hearts}{6-Spades} and de la Cerra {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. The flop then came {6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{Q-Spades}, pairing Uhl. The turn was the {Q-Clubs}, meaning there were just two kings left in the deck that could win her the hand.

The dealer then burned and turned over the river… the {K-Diamonds}! Uhl is out, and with Gaelle Baumann having lost a few chips of late, it appears de la Cerra has grabbed the chip lead.

Big Slick Brings Chips for Boutros

Lara Boutros opened for 2,500 from under the gun and got one caller from middle position. It folded around to the player in the small blind who reraised all in for 9,600, Boutros called, and the player in the middle got out.

Boutros had {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and her opponent {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, and when the board rolled out {8-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{9-Spades}{K-Spades}{6-Spades}, another player was eliminated as Boutros added more to her stack.
