Some Chip Updates

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Gavin-Mather Makes Quads

Level 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Lexy Gavin-Mather
Lexy Gavin-Mather

According to the players, action started with a raise by the player in the hijack. Eric Penner was in the cutoff and went all in. The button and small blind folded. Lexy Gavin-Mather was in the big blind and reraised all in. Original raiser folded and Penner was the player at risk.

Eric Penner: 77All in
Lexy Gavin-Mather: 1010

The flop was great for Gavin-Mather, it came 8104, giving her top set.

Penner was drawing very thin, but got some help on the J turn, which gave him a gutshot.

It was clearly Gavin-Mather’s pot, however, as the 10 rolled off on the river, giving her quads and sending Penner to the rail.
