Brewer Runs Hot

Laura Fryer

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

After a player recalled how Christine Brewer had just cracked aces in a previous hand with her queen-seven off suit, Brewer found herself all in again with two opponents just a few hands later.

Lang Yi had opened from early position and Yansong Kou moved all in from the hijack for her remaining 300,000. Christine Brewer jammed on the button for 325,000, and Lang Yi called.

Yansong Kou: 8♦8♣ All in
Christine Brewer: Q♥Q♣ All in
Lang Yi: A♣A♥

Yi was ahead, and Brewer stood to watch the runout.

The J♠A♦K♠ came on the flop, improving Yi but also giving Brewer outs with the straight draw.

Brewer hit on the 10♦ turn, and nothing changed on the 6♥ river, securing yet another huge pot for Brewer and eliminating Kou from the tournament.

Gabrielle Barredo

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♠ All in
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."
