Fung Builds an Early Stack; Marchesano Restarts
Altynai Fung has built an early stack in the tournament and currently sits high within the counts. Katharina Clark also joins her on the felt at the same table. Clark isn't a regular to the WSOP, with this being her largest recorded tournament buy in. Her first recorded event was back in 2016 where she min-cashed the WSOP $1,000 No Limit Hold'em Tag Team event. Since then, she hasn't been seen on the felt at the WSOP. They are in good company with many other notable ladies in the tournament.
Fung took a small tumble when she doubled up Vincent Marchesano after Marchesano moved all in from the cutoff for 9,000 and Fung called on the button.
Vincent Marchesano: Q♠J♠
Altynai Fung: A♠10♣
Despite Fung looking at a straight draw on the K♦Q♥2♠ flop, Marchesano had picked up queens and held on the 10♥ 9♣ runout.
Marchesano left the hand with starting stack.
