We came up to a table where Trevor Delaney had an approximately 30,000 bet in front of him. He was up against two ladies who had both gone all-in. Regina Auletta was all-in for 75,800, and Kathy Sawers had all of her 32,700 chips in front of her.
It took quite a while for Trevor to make up his mind. After a few furtive glances to the side-by-side women, he gave a huge sigh and folded his hand. This fold seemed to surprise the other players considerably, after all he did have almost half of the required chips already committed to the pot.
With Delaney out, both ladies tabled their hands.
Regina: 
Kathy: 
As the dealer took out the flop, Kathy liked but definitely didn’t love what she saw: 
Now, on top of all the jacks, Kathy had to dodge any club and every queen.
The turn 
was a brick.
But in the end the river 
gave Regina the win with a somewhat simple solution: top pair.
So Kathy Sawers was sent to the rail and Regina doubled-her stack to a more comfortable number. Now with more than the average, and only 40 minutes left to play, it gave her some much-needed breathing room.
