Amber Chatwin Summons a Six, Eliminates Opponent

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

A player in middle position raised to 2,000, Amber Chatwin called, and the cutoff went all in for 6,000. The initial raiser folded, and Chatwin called.

Chatwin: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
All-in player: {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

The flop came {K-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and Chatwin told her opponent, "Nice hand."

The turn was the {5-Spades}, and Chatwin announced, "Six!"

Just then, the deal burned and put out the {6-Diamonds} on the river. Chatwin gasped, and her opponent made her exit as she took down the pot with the rivered set.

Oanh Bui Loses One

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Lindsay Kido raised to 1,700 from the under-the-gun position. Oanh Bui called, and the player in the small blind called, as well.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. The player in the small blind led out for 1,700, Kido folded, and Bui called. The turn brought them a {7-}. The small blind bet 3,200, Bui raised to 8,500, and the player in the small blind called. Another {7-} on the river completed the board. The player in the small blind check-called the bet of 6,500 from Bui.

Bui showed {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a straight, but the player in the small blind showed {10-}{7-} off-suit for a full house.

Mandy Baker Bursts Bubble

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Mandy Baker
Mandy Baker

The flop read {5-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, and both Mandy Baker and the player on the button checked. The {7-Clubs} came on the turn, the player on the button checked, and Baker bet 7,500. The player on the button shoved all in for her remaining 17,300. Baker called.

Button: {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Mandy Baker: {A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

They both had trip sevens, but Baker had the better kicker with the ace. The {4-Hearts} on the river completed the board — no danger for Baker, and she bursted the bubble.

Parm Mehmi Keeps Climbing

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With the board reading {Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {10-Clubs} and more than 9,000 in the pot, Parm Mehmi bet 14,000 in the small blind. Her lone opponent in middle position thought for some time and then pushed forward chips to call.

Mehmi tabled {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for nines full of tens, good for the pot.

Mehmi, who took fifth place in the Ladies Event in 2015, is now over 100,000 chips, vying for the chip lead. Also building a big stack at the same table is Amanda Sizemore, who final tabled with Mehmi in 2015, finishing in third place.
