A Couple of Nice Hands for Ross-Powers and Wolak

We came on this hand with four players having gone to a {Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop. The small blind checked, chip leader Gaelle Baumann bet 1,700, Candida Ross-Powers raised to 3,700, then 2011 Ladies No-Limit Hold'em Championship winner Marsha Wolak called as well, leaving herself around 8,000 behind.

Both the small blind and Baumann folded, then Ross-Powers reraised enough to put Wolak all in and the defending champ called.

"Nice hand!" said Wolak as she spied Ross-Powers's {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, then tabled her own {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. The river was the {10-Spades}, and the pair chopped the pot.
