One Less Woman Left

Janet Callaway was one of four women left in the main event when we saw her put her remaining 193,000 in preflop. She found just one caller in Lance Steinberg, and when the cards were flipped, Callaway saw that she was in rough shape.

Callaway: {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Steinberg: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The ESPN cameras set up shop, and the players were ready for what would be a roller coaster board. The flop brought out {10-Clubs}{q-Spades}{8-Clubs}, giving Callaway the lead but giving Steinberg a straight draw. That draw came on the turn, when the {j-Clubs} came, giving Steinberg a Broadway straight. Callaway could only get a king on the river to chop the pot, and she wasn't able to, as it came the {10-Diamonds}. Steinberg collected the chips, leaving us with just three women left in the event, with around 200 players remaining.
