Level 12: 800/1,600 with a 200 ante
Day 1E Players Remaining: 180 of 605

Cheri Beatty’s stack was up and down throughout the day as she bounced to three different tables after they broke. She hit her high point before getting mixed up with Yves Fequiere.

Beatty opened the action and he called in the small blind to see the flop. Fequiere check/called a flop bet then check/called against after the turn. He led out after the river and Beatty must have sensed something was up.

She called with aces but they were no good when she saw Fequiere chased with . The hand dropped her under 30,000 and she was gone soon after when her sevens couldn’t outrace .
