Backdoor Full House for Ecaldre
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Jessica Cai opened to 50,000 and got called by Juliet Hegedus in the cutoff and Dorothy Ecaldre in the big blind.
The flop came 6♦10♠5♠. Ecaldre led with a shove all-in for 375,000, making Cai fold and sending Hegedus to the tank. She took a few seconds to think about her action but finally made the call, taking them to showdown and putting Ecaldre at risk.
Dorothy Ecaldre: 10♣3♠ 
Juliet Hegedus: 10♦8♦
Both players hit the ten on the flop, but Hegedus had the better kicker, putting her ahead of Ecaldre. To the shock of the table, the runout dropped 3♥3♦ giving Ecaldre a runner, runner full house and the win.
Elisa Nakagawa joked, "Now that is skill."
