Dragon Lady Gets Burned
The pandemonium began with Gretchen Brummer, who had become affectionately known as "The Dragon Lady" for her love of dragons, going all in for her last 34,000 from under-the-gun. Amanda Sizemore called to her immediate left and action folded to Frances Ey on the cutoff, who announced she was all in. Right behind her on the button, Marsha Wolak announced she was also all in. Action folded back around to Sizemore, who again called to cover the overlay from Wolak's all-in shove.
Sizemore: 
Brummer: 
Ey: 
Wolak, 
Brummer shrieked with joy at seeing she was a favorite going into the flop. However, the joy would soon turn into anguish at what was to be.
The board came 
, which left both Ey and Wolak with kings and queens.
At the end of it all, Brummer was eliminated, Sizemore slid to 47,000, Ey chipped up to 71,000 and Wolak chipped up to 82,000.
