Level 21 : 1,600/3,200, 400 ante

Jon "jonnyg93" Gisler open-shoved a stack of 10,261 from middle position and "binkles" three-bet jammed in the small blind for 60,371. "NastyMinder" called in the big blind with both opponents covered.

Jon "jonnyg93" Gisler: {k-Clubs}{5-Spades}
"binkles": {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
"NastyMinder": {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}

The flop of {3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{a-Clubs} gave "NastyMinder" a big lead with a pair of aces and they improved to trips on the runout of {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} to eliminate both opponents.

Winter Gets There to Eliminate Gisler

Level 19 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Sean "Truckerben" Winter opened to 4,800 in late position and Jon "jonnyg93" Gisler three-bet jammed a stack of 5,977 from the cutoff. Winter called with a bigger stack.

Jon "jonnyg93" Gisler: {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Sean "Truckerben" Winter: {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

It looked like a double for Gisler after the flop of {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and {3-Spades} turn left his ace-high ahead, but the river brought the {q-Diamonds} to improve Winter to a pair of queens to win the pot.

Gisler rebought back into the tournament after being eliminated.

2022 WSOP Featured Females: Meet Wendeen Eolis, 1st Woman to Ever Cash Main Event

In the mid 1980’s, women were considered no factor in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, and other than the famous rounder and professional gambler Thomas “Amarillo Slim” Preston, poker players rarely made headlines in the mainstream press. That all changed when Wendeen Eolis became the first woman to cash at poker’s “Big Dance.”

In the 1986 WSOP Main Event, Eolis battled some of the best players in the world, including Amarillo Slim, in a field of 141 runners. She was on her way to a 25th-place finish for a $10,000, return on her buy-in, and permanent bragging rights as the first woman in history to cash in the WSOP Main Event.

Eolis attributes her 1986 WSOP performance to a year of poker tutoring from one of the best, a “relatively” conservative game plan, and cooperative cards. She told PokerNews, “Even today, women can win more by bluffing less than men.”
