Andrews, Garcia Each Step Aside
We were standing between a couple of tables, one of which finds Cord Garcia battling with a short stack, the other Cherish Andrews having chipped up so far today, and both players were involved in hands at their respective tables.
At Andrews's table, she'd opened for 500 from the cutoff, then a player in the blinds reraised to 1,700, and she called. Then when her opponent fired big at a 
flop, Andrews stepped aside.
In Garcia's hand, the pot was considerably larger — up over 9,300 — when a flop came 
and his opponent playing from the hijack seat pushed all in for about 14,000. Garcia (on the button) spent some time counting out his remaining chips to see that he was covered, and eventually let his hand go.
