Weisner Wastes One

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Melanie Weisner
Melanie Weisner

We saw the dealer flipping over the losing cards, busting Melanie Weisner's opponent. Weisner scooped in the pot. She was holding {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds} on a board of {5-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and is piling up chips to add to her tower.

Snowmen Not Melted For Andrews

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Cherish Andrews
Cherish Andrews

Cherish Andrews was all in preflop and her tournament life was put on the line by chip leader Mikiyo Aoki.

Andrews: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Aoki: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Andrews needed help and she would get it as the dealer fanned out a board of {8-Spades}{a-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. Andrews' flopped set of eights was best and she doubled up through Aoki.

Baumer Bombs It In

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Rita Baumer raised to 5,500 from middle position and faced an all-in raise. She quickly called and flipped over {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}. The original raiser showed a lesser pocket pair: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}. The board ran out with no help to the nines when the dealer revealed {j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Baumer won the pot and eliminated her opponent.

Double Knockout for Santy

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We arrived at the table with three sets of pocket cards face up and players about to see the board run out. Lisa Santy had the largest stack of the three and the best hand with {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} to her opponents' {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} and {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. Nobody managed to connect with the board of {10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Santy won the pot with a set of threes with her ace-queen kicker.
