One For the Ladies
We mentioned yesterday that the ladies were out in full force for this event. At last count, we still have 6 of them left. The most recent mover of that contingent is Xuan Liu, the charming Canadian pro.
Liu is quickly making her mark as one of the more formidable players in the game, regardless of gender. In the last two years, she's made two EPT final tables including a fourth-place finish in the most recent PCA. Those two cashes combined to earn her well over $1 million. She also won an IPT side event in San Remo, and a little win in an 8-game tournament hints at her mixed-game prowess, too.
Indeed, Liu is doing good work again here today. Our last check (about an hour ago) had her down in the danger zone with just about her starting stack of 4,500. Things have changed. We heard a seat open call at her table, and we hurried over to see her stacking up the chips of her recently departed opponent. That pot moves her all the way back up to 24,000, and she's back in the game with an average chip stack once again.
