Ko Holds and Loveless Leaves the Tournament
Wing Sze Ko moved all in from the button for her remaining ~18,000 stack. Marta Porter called from the small blind and players flipped their cards.
Wing Sze Ko: A?A?
Marta Porter: K?10?
Ko safely secured the double with very little sweat on the 8?5?9?4?Q? runout.
On the next table across, Alexandra Loveless was all in for 14,000 from an early position and action had folded around to Elizabeth Bennett-Martin in the big blind.
Bennett-Martin moved a chip in to call and the players went heads-up to showdown.
Alexandra Loveless: Q?10?
Elizabeth Bennett-Martin: Q?K?
The flop came 10?6?J? which brought in a pair and backdoor flush draw for loveless. Bennett-Martin also was looking at a straight and backdoor flush draw.
A Q? was turned, bringing in top pair for Bennett-Martin.
The A? river sealed Loveless's fate, and she was eliminated late in the day.
