Mills Smashes the Flop
Action was opened under the gun by Kasey Mills to 1,000. The action folded to the button who flat called and the small blind folded. It was then on the big blind who took a moment and ultimately opted to put in the cold three-bet to 5,000. Mills called and the button came along as well. The players were off to a flop three ways.
The J♥2♥K♠ flop hit the felt and the big blind continued with a bet of 7,000. Mills was next to act and took her time before gather a raise to the tune of 17,500 and putting it in the middle. The button got out of the way and the big blind went into the tank. After significant time had passed the big blind announced he was all in with Mills having him covered by just a few thousand. Mills snap called.
The cards hit their back.
Big Blind: A♥A♣
Kasey Mills: J♠J♦
Mills was in great shape but the 5♥ turn brought in a bunch of new outs in the form of a flush draw for her opponent's aces. Fortunately, the river landed a clean 9♦ and Mills would send her opponent to the rail early in Day 1 while dragging in a pile of chips.
