I Am Woman

Our last remaining female player just became involved in a giant pot at Table 1.

From middle position, Pia Jeppesen opens the pot with a raise. The play folds around to the Ryan Roeder in the big blind, and he puts in a reraise to 50,000. Jeppesen pushes back with all her chips, 168,000 total. Roeder quickly calls, and shows the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}. Jeppesen realizes she is in bad shape as she flips over her cards, {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}.

All is not lost for her though, as an ace on the flop gives her the win, and sends Roeder reeling. After dragging that king-sized pot, Jeppesen is up in the top five on the leader bord, sitting pretty with 340,000.
