Event 1 (Flight 1C): "How Good Is She Running?"

"Battles At The Beach"
Event 1 ($175 No Limit Hold'em $125,000 GTD)
Level 11 (Blinds 500/1,000/100)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 102

Debra Pope (Arlington, TX)

Approaching Table 4, Debra Pope (Arlington, TX) would be heads-up on the river of a board reading 3♣ 4 Q 2♠ 2.  Pope, who was playing one of the larger stacks in the field, bet enough on the river to put her opponent all-in.  The unknown player quickly called, and after Pope rolled over 4♠ 4♣, picked his cards up from the table in disgust.  "How good is she running," he exclaimed, as he showed a deuce before tossing his hand into the muck and leaving the table.

With that sizable pot, Debra is just shy of 100,000, and sits with a top three stack in the flight.  Pope has over $11,500 in live tournament earnings, and is coming off a final table at SHR ($250 No Limit Hold'em Holiday Deepstack - 3rd Place $5,954).
