Parrino Avoids the Worst

Matt Hansen

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Action was heads up with around 10,000 in the middle and 2♣5♥A♣ on the flop. Donna Parrino tossed out 4,000 and Elisabeth Hurlbert went all in for around 13,000.

Parrino shook her head and followed her instincts with a face-up fold of K♥K♠. Hurtbert dragged the pot in and turned over A♥A♠ to confirm Parrino's cooler suspicions.

Welcome to the Free Poker Network $100,000 World Championship Main Event at Golden Nugget in Las Vegas. Cards go in the air at 10 a.m. for this unique championship event.

The championship is open to qualifiers only, and players have been winning their way in throughout 2023 and throughout the last week in Las Vegas. They also had the opportunity to win 20,000 extra bonus chips in each of the five qualifiers in Las Vegas. Joel Smith is in pole position, and he earned $500 for starting with the largest chip stack of 100,000.

Hundreds of qualifiers are expected, including Phil Wilburn and Darren Creed, who won the Tag Team Championship on Saturday night. Also qualifying in the Tag Team event were Connor Richards and Chad Holloway of the PokerNews Podcast. They made a run to sixth place to punch their ticket to the championship.

Cards go in the air at 10 a.m. and levels will increase every 30 minutes throughout the day until a winner is crowned. Be sure to keep it with the PokerNews team all day long for live updates from the floor in the Grand Ballroom at Golden Nugget.
