Frances Anderson has just been eliminated from the 2011 WSOP $1,000 Ladies Championship at the hands of Sandra Suvearingen.
Earlier, Patty Glass did most of the damage to his stack after cracking Anderson's with , pairing an ace on the board. Down to his last chips, Anderson shoved them in from the small blind a short time later with , but Suvearingen woke up with in the big blind.
The board improved neither hand and Anderson was sent packing. Interesting sidenote: when the ladies enquired as to why he was playing in the tournament today, he said that it was "because he sucked".
We can now confirm that there are three male players left in the field.
We just saw a very interesting development at Black Table #6. We didn't catch all of the action, but this is what happened from the information we gathered.
Action folded around to the player in the small blind, who had the intention of moving all in. However, she grabbed two of her three stacks and pushed them forward, then grabbed her third and slid that forward. This, my friends, is your classic string bet. The problem with this instance was that the big blind had instantly made the call and had already flipped her hand, assuming that her opponent was all in. As it turned out, the big blind had the small blind crushed, with vs .
The floor was called over, and the ruling was made that the flop would be dealt out, and that the players would "play the hand as if they didn't know the other person's cards." Well the flop came , and understandably, the small blind checked, the big blind pushed, and the small blind happily folded, as she had just caught a big break, and was given a second chance in this tournament.
Lizzy Monroe has been nursing a short stack for quite some time and recently committed her last 1,775 from early position. The woman in the cutoff made the call while the rest of the field got out of the way.
Monroe:
Cutoff:
Monroe was in a tough spot, but the flop cheered her up considerably as she picked up a flush draw. The turn did not complete it, but did provide her with a gut-shot straight draw. Unfortunately for Monroe, the {!0c} blanked on the river and she was eliminated from the Ladies Championship.
We caught up with the action on a flop, where Lily Newhouse's lone opponent in the big blind went all in for her last couple thousand. Newhouse slid out a call.
"Did you call me with a two?" Newhouse's opponent asked, tabling .
"No, you're good," she replied while flipping over the .
The turn and river missed Newhouse and she slipped to a still-healthy 16,000 in chips.
There have been confirmed reports of a female competitor having taken ill at table eight prior to the dinner break. During that time, the other players were moved to another table in order for the janitors to clean up and upon the completion of the dinner break, the players were able to return to their original table, along with the ill player's stack, which was blinded out until she returned earlier in previous blind level.
However, she was sick once again, and at the instruction of the floor staff, the player was asked to leave to seek medical attention. While her fellow tablemates have been moved out to table 32 to continue play, as per the WSOP rules, her stack will be blinded off until she is either deemed fit to return by a doctor or she runs out of chips, whichever comes first.
On behalf of the PokerNews team, we wish her a speedy recovery.
