A 30-year drought could end late Sunday as Leo Margets is closing in on becoming the first woman since Barbara Enright to reach the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event final table.
Enright, a Poker Hall of Famer, is the only woman ever to make the final nine in poker's most prestigious event, which she did in 1995 with a fifth-place finish for $114,180. She might soon no longer be part of a one-woman club.
Aram Oganyan was first to act and raised to 24,000 before he got two calls from Aleks Dimitrov in the small blind and Daniel Negreanu in the big blind.
Dimitrov and Negreanu checked the K♦J♥Q♣ flop before Oganyan bet 44,000. Dimitrov came along with a call, but Negreanu bowed out to make it heads-up.
Dimitrov and Oganyan checked through the A♣ turn and the Q♥ river to go to a showdown.
Dimotrov showed a flopped straight with A♥10♥ as Oganyan threw his cards into the muck.

Sam Soverel opened to 24,000 from the cutoff and Adrien Delmas defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♠J♣6♥ and Delmas check-called a 20,000 bet from Soverel.
Both players checked the 3♦ turn leading to the 10♦ river. Delmas bet 27,000 and Soverel raised to 140,000, forcing a fold from Delmas.

When action folded to Dario Sammartino in the small blind, he opted to limp in. [Removed:548] then bumped it up to 42,000 from the big blind, and Sammartino called.
The two saw a flop of A♦2♣8♠ laid out, and Sammartino check-called a bet of 24,000.
When Sammartino checked for a second time on the 9♠ turn, [Removed:549] amped up the pressure, placing a more significant bet of 165,000.
Sammartino looked suspicious, eyeing [Removed:549] up and down. After a few minutes weighing up the situation, though, he opted to return his cards to the dealer.

A series of raises bounced around between Phua Wei in the hijack and Sean Rosenthal in the cutoff. The bidding war culminated in an all-in from Wei for 815,000, which was called by Rosenthal for less, who was at risk for 530,000.
Sean Rosenthal: A♣K♣
Phua Wei: K♠K♥
Rosenthal held the best drawing hand in the game, but Wei's pocket kings were not an ideal opponent for Rosenthal's holding.
Rosenthal found no solace when the board spread out 4♥9♠9♦5♣9♣ to give Wei a full house and send Rosenthal out of the tournament.

Gustavo Ortega raised from the hijack to 25,000, only to be met by a three-bet to 80,000 by Jakob Miegel on the button. Action then folded back to Ortega, who made the call.
The players checked down to the river on the 5♣3♦6♥K♥ board, prompting Ortega to take a stab on the Q♣ river, betting out for 18,000.
Miegel took some time before calling, announcing he had a king and tabling K♠7♠. A surprised Ortega told him a king was good, and pushed the chips across the table.

With two players seeing a board of 8♣2♥6♦3♣ and a bit over 200,000 in the middle, Adrien Delmas bet 150,000 from the small blind and Martins Adeniya called from the big blind.
Delmas shoved for just over 350,000 on the 6♥ river. Adeniya thought for a couple of minutes before opting to fold and the sizable pot was pushed to Delmas without showdown.
