FSPC Event 1 (Flight 1C): Schmidt Looking To Hold It Down For The Ladies

2017 Florida State Poker Championships
Event 1 - $175 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD)
Level 16 (Blinds 2,000/4,000/500)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 105
Flight 1C Players Remaining: 16/105


Diane Schmidt (Ft. Myers, FL) 

Diane Schmidt (Ft. Myers, FL) just went from trying to be the only woman to bag chips in this flight, to trying to bag the chip lead.  After the player UTG opened to 8,000, and four players called behind, Diance Schmidt decided to come along from the big blind.  She'd fire out a bet of 15,000 into the field after the K 10 5♠ flop, clearing all but one player out of the hand.  Her line changed after the 9 on the turn, check-calling a 20,000 bet from her opponent.  With the 2 on the river completing the diamond draw, Diane announced she was all-in, putting her opponent to a decision for his stack.

Schmidt's adversary was visibly frustrating, feeling that he had the best hand until the river.  After three minutes in the tank, he would release his hand, and Diane would scoop 120,000 pot without contest.  She's up to 180,000, and just one sizable pot away from becoming the flight's chip leader.
