Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Michael Starek opened to 625,000 in hijack and Wes Heryford to his left called. Lisa Tan on the button three-bet to 2,300,000. Starek folded but Heryford four-bet all-in for 14,000,000 sending Tan to the tank.
She counted her chips, took her hoodie off and put up her hair. Finally she called putting her tournament life on the line.
Lisa Tan: K♦J♠
Wes Heryford: A♠9♦
The flop came 8♦4♠J♣ pushing Tan into lead with a pair. The K♣ turn gave her a two pair securing her a double up. The river 7♣ was a formality.
Tan's scooped her massive double up which prompted a frustrated Heryford to talk to his rail.
