Upeshka De Silva and Ben Zamani Grinding For Bracelet Number Three

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Upeshka De Silva and Ben Zamani both won their second-career WSOP bracelets last night and are already grinding for a third one today in the Colossus Flight 1F.

Jessica Dawley

Jessica Dawley raised to 1,700 from under the gun, and Eric Larson three-bet to 4,300. Action folded back around to Dawley, and she moved all in for 9,000. Larson shrugged his shoulders and said, "I call."

Dawley tabled {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}, and Larson revealed {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for a coin flip.

The flop came {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades}, and Dawley still needed an ace or a king to improve. The turn was the {9-Hearts}, and Dawley was drawing dead to the {3-Clubs} on the river.
