Total Flight 1E Entries: 210

Ashley Causey (McDonough, GA) hasn't cashed in a tournament since September of 2016, but looks to be putting herself in position to change that tomorrow afternoon.

Table 9 was approached with four players on a flop of A♠ 9♠ 4♣, with an unknown player in the small blind leading out for 2,500.  Linda Lipkins (big blind) and Ashley Causey (cutoff) made the call, as the three players watched the 6♣ fall on the turn.  Both blinds checked to Causey, who put out a healthy bet of 22,000, which was called by Lipkins.  The dealer than put down the K♦ on the river, with Lipkins checking to Ashley once again.  Causey continued her strong line, placing forth a bet of 25,000, which was called by Linda.

Ashley tabled 9♣ 9♥, having flopped middle set, which was good enough to take down the over 100,000 pot. Lipkins would be left with just 10,000 after absorbing the loss, while Causey chipped up to 120,000.

Ashley Causey - 121,000 (100bb)
Linda Lipkins - 10,000 (8bb)
