: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Kathy Saraf opened with a 500 bet from under the gun and got four callers - Sara Dehghani in cutoff, Deborah Tallaksen on the button and blinds Lauren Harmon, Suzanne Gentner in small and big respectively.
Tallaksen was a bit busy chatting with her seatmates as the dealer flopped 9♥Q♠9♣, talking about her grandchild. The blinds checked the action back to Saraf who fired 700. Deghani folded, and Tallaksen raised to 1,400, pushing the blinds out of the hand.
With action back to her, Saraf considered her options ultimately folding. Tallaksen turned over her cards to show Q♥9♠ for a full house on the flop then continued relating how her grandchild wished her luck on the event.

On the 2♦ river, both checked and Petit tabled Q♣9♣ for top pair, which was good enough to make Lindsay muck her cards.

While covering this table, the ladies were comparing poker nails. Michelle Ceglarek suggested a picture montage of the best nails and a prize given to the winner.
Mor Kamber raised from early position to 500 and received calls from Michelle Ceglarek on the button, Sigrid Dencker in the small blind, and Michelle Montoya in the big blind. The flop arrived with 6♥Q♦3♠ and everyone checked.
On the turn A♣, everyone checked to Ceglarek, who bet out 500, Kamber folded, Decker folded, and Montoya called.
The river 2♣, Montoya checked again, as Ceglarek bet 1,500, Montoya called. Ceglarek showed A♥10♠ for the top pair, and Montoya hit her second pair on the river with Q♥2♦ for the win.
But the winners at the table for the best nails were Ceglarek and Kyong Yung.

Caitlin Comeskey opened to 500 under the gun and Paulina Loeliger three-bet to 1,500. Jean Julian in the big blind called while Comeskey folded leaving the remaining two to see the flop.
The flop came 6♣7♠5♦. Julian checked then Loeliger asked how much she had behind. Misunderstanding the question, Julian, holding her hole cards, turned her wrist to show one card, which Comeskey immediately covered with her hand.
Loeliger bet 1,000 and Julian responded with an all-in shove for 6,000. Loeliger called taking them to showdown.
Jean Julian: J♣J♥ 
Paulina Loeliger: A♣K♣
Julian was ahead with jacks and Loeliger was left to hope for one of her over cards to hit the board. The turn K♥ dropped giving Loeliger the higher pair. The 8♣ river was dealt with no consequence. Julian left the table as Loeliger scooped the pot.
