The action folded to Katie Lindsay on the button who made it 1,700. The small blind bumped it up to 5,600 and Lindsay opted to peel a flop of K♥8♥6♥.
"Don't f*** this up, PokerNews," Mike Dentale shouted from the table having never written a hand history himself. Meanwhile, Frank Stepuchin walked over chowing down on a half-eaten steak on his fork.
Getting back to the poker hand, the small blind continued with a bet of 5,100 and Lindsay called to see the 8♣ on the turn. The small blind checked this time and Lindsay tossed in a bet which promptly got her opponent to muck her cards.
"You can write that one," Lindsay approved.
