It's a sad Diana Kalietina who was going right to the WSOP cashier to collect her money.

"Kings against jack-seven", she said, before confessing: "I raised, and he defended his big blind. Then, he found a flush draw, and all the chips were into the middle on the flop".

She had 350,000 and has now zero. The player who busted her is Daniel Zack, and he has now more than the average.
