Kimberly Kilroy Trying to Parlay Seniors Championship Run Into Main Event Glory

Earlier in the summer, Kimberly Kilroy sat down to play in the 2013 WSOP Seniors Championship on a bit of a lark, having cashed in just a few small tournaments throughout her life. Despite her relative inexperience, Kilroy made a very deep run to finish in 16th place, and her $25,027 score was by far the biggest of her brief dalliance with poker. Kilroy also ended up as the last lady standing from a field of 4,407 runners, giving her a special distinction to remember in addition to the experience of a lifetime.

Kilroy has decided to put some of that prize money to use here today, as she can be found in the Amazon Room's Purple section competing on this Day 1b of the Main Event. We will let you know if Kilroy is able to build a stack as she did throughout the Seniors Championship, as she tries to surpass her best ever finish to cap a summer to remember.
