Waters Wins at Showdown
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Charlie Waters raised to 5,000 from the cutoff, with K♥J♥. Ivonne Montealegre, in the big blind, defended with 10♦9♦.
The 6♠8♠6♣ flop checked through to the K♠ on the turn. Montealegre took the lead for 12,000 and Waters called with her top pair.
The 2♣ river saw Montealegre give up her bluff. Waters checked back to win the pot with her pair of kings.
