The Leading Lady
While flying quietly under the radar for most of the day today and yesterday, Dana Castaneda made herself known in a big way here on Day 2, and that was by getting a monster stack.
We walked by Castaneda's table and she was involved in another big pot. On a board of 
a player had bet 4,700 in to Castaneda who raised to 20,000. Her opponent was thinking when we got to the table and then he moved all in with a much short stack than Castaneda's. Castaneda called quickly and the hands were turned up.
Castaneda: 
Opponent: 
The board completed with a 
on the turn and an 
on the river giving Castaneda the winning hand and the other player's whole stack. With that hand, she's moved up over 200,000 and looks to be the woman with the most chips in the room.
