Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Louise Barnbrook limped from the cutoff, and got a call from Emma Jones on the button. Both blinds checked.
The flop came 2♥A♠10♥ and play checked to Jones who bet 300, which was enough to take the family pot.
A few hands later, Juliane Papazian limped from the cutoff, and both Jones and Krisztina Kormos checked the blinds.
The 9♦5♥4♠ flop was checked to Papazian, who bet 200 with both blinds calling behind.
The 7♥ was turned, and Jones check-called after Papazian bet 600. Kormos folded.
The K♣ river saw Jones check, Papazian bet 800, and Jones raise to 2500. Papazian considered before mucking their hand, leaving Jones to take another early pot.

The second starting flight of the Women’s Winter Festival £400 Main Event is set to shuffle up and deal, with play scheduled to begin today at midday. Following a strong turnout for Day 1a yesterday, anticipation is high for another exciting day of poker as players look to claim their spot in Day 2.
Yesterday’s opening flight saw eight players secure their place in Saturday’s Day 2. There was an impressive performance from Mary-Rose McCann, who topped the Day 1a chip counts with a commanding stack of 330,000. Her stellar play has set the bar high, giving today’s hopefuls a target to chase as they look to secure their place in the next stage of the tournament. Lisa Roberts also had a good run yesterday, making it through second in the counts. She continued to build a stack after she bust Melanie Moser having flopped a straight. Today’s field will battle it out for the chance to join them, take home the trophy and their share of the £100,000 guaranteed prize pool.
The top 20% of today’s entries will advance, setting the stage for an intense competition as the action heats up on the felt. Adding to the mix, 20 players who earned their seats through a qualifying satellite that took place will also jump into the fray today. The atmosphere promises to be just as electric yesterday, with players chasing poker glory.
Players will start the day with a stack of 30,000 chips and blinds will be 100/100 with 100 big blind ante in Level 1. Forty-minute levels will be played, with a break every three levels. There will be a 45-minute dinner break after Level 10, at approximately 7:25 p.m.
Late registration will be open until ~8:25 p.m. with each player limited to one reentry per flight. Play will stop for the day when 20% of the field remains. The prize pool will be announced at the start of Day 2 after all three starting flights have been played.
Stay tuned as PokerNews bring you updates throughout the day, including chip counts, notable hands, and the stories of those who rise and fall in their quest for a share of the prize pool.
