Jessica Cai on Day 1

Chris Lewis raised from the cutoff, the player on the button called, and Jessica Cai called in the big blind.

The flop was 9s8h4s, Cai checked, and Lewis continued. Both the button and Cai called.

The turn was the Kc, Cai checked, Lewis bet, the button folded, and Cai called.

The river was the 3c, Cai checked, Lewis went all in, and Cai tanked for a bit before she called all in for 1,235,000.

Lewis showed Tc7d for a missed open-ender, while Cai tabled 8s6s for a pair of eights to win the pot and double up.

Jessica Cai  –  4,020,000  (101 bb)
Chris Lewis  –  3,100,000  (78 bb)
