Loffreno Dispatches Parx Poker Ambassador
After the under-the-gun player raised to 18,000, Parx Poker Ambassador Esther Taylor, who late registered on Day 2, called off her last 15,000. Matt McGuire called from the hijack, Frank Loffreno did the same from the button, and the big blind made it four active players to the flop.
"This is a good spot for me," Taylor said before the three cards were spread. Indeed, she had a chance to turn her paltry stack into high five figures if she could come out the victor.
The big blind checked, as did the original raiser, and McGuire bet 15,000. Loffreno called, the big blind folded, and the UTG player came along to see the turn.
Two checks saw Loffreno bet 80,000 and that chased out his opponents.

Loffreno:
Taylor was looking for either a king or queen, but it wasn't in the cards as the bricked on the river.
