A player in middle positon limped and Wendeen Eolis raised to 1,200 from the hijack. The player in the cutoff three-bet to 3,000 and the player in the small blind called cold. The initial limper folded and Eolis called for a three-way pot.
Everyone checked on the 4♣3♥5♥ flop, but Eolis fired 10,000 into the middle after being checked to on the 6♥ turn. Both of her opponents folded and Eolis added to her stack.
Eolis, who was the first woman to cash the Main Event, is below a starting stack, but still has plenty of chips with 45,000.
