Shirley Williams and Gavin Smith in the Money

Three years later, David is an early casualty in this event, and it's Shirley's turn to go deep. Like the rest of the field, she just made her way into the money, guaranteed at least a $20,320 payday.
I asked her to remember back to three years ago, and whether or not she thought she'd ever make the money in the Main Event. Shirley replied, "Three years ago? I didn't think I'd make the money *this morning*!"
She's so excited to be here, and ready to have a good time. She returned from the break with about 85,000 in chips, and is seated to the immediate right of Gavin Smith, who resumed play with about 47,000 in chips.
