In blind versus blind action, Xiu Men Song and Elizabeth Montizanti found all their money in the middle. Song was the one at risk, but held the better hand.

Montizanti: {A-?}

{A-?}

{6-?}

Song:

{A-?}

{Q-?}

The board ran out {K-?}

{K-?}

{8-?}

{4-?}

{7-?}

{2-?}

and Montizanti's all in move crippled her, leaving her with just 2,300 left and she'd be in the small blind next hand.

On her small blind, Montizanti had a lot of action occur before it even got to her. Vesenia Garcia moved all in from middle position and then Linda Johnson did the same from the cutoff. Montizanti decided she would have her best odds here and put the rest of her chips in.

Johnson: {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

Montizanti: {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

Garcia:

{A-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

and then the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

slapped on the turn, much to Johnson's displeasure. The river was another queen, the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

.

Johnson dropped down to 15,000 and Garcia doubled up. Montizanti was eliminated.
