Former WPT Live Updates Hostess Kimberly Lansing had a memorable run in this event last year, picking all the right times to catch a two-outer on the river to double up and stay alive. She ultimately finished in 8th place, which technically became the final table bubble as two players were eliminated in a tie for 6th.
This year, she's on the same path.
She was all in preflop with A-5 against Billy Baxter's A-9. Baxter eliminated her last year, and he was looking to do it again. But the board came [10c10d8d8c4h], and it was a chopped pot con los dos pares en el tablero.
Then she was all in preflop with [Ad10h] against someone's [5d5h]. The board came [QcJd7c9c8h] -- Kimberly made a queen-high straight on the river to double up.
