Defending Champion Out

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Vanessa Hellebuyck, our defending champion of last year's Ladies Event, has been eliminated.

We missed the action but are being told that Hellebuyck bet 2,800 on a {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop into a lone opponent. Her opponent raised to 7,000, Hellebuyck pushed all in and she was called.

Hellebuyck: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The {6-Spades} turn and {3-Hearts} river failed to improve Hellebuyck and her tournament life was put to an end.
