WSOP Circuit grinder Loni Harwood has had herself quite a summer so far. She has already locked up her fifth cash of the summer, and she has two final tables, a 6th in Event #31 $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Eight-or-Better, and a 4th in Event #53 $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em just last week for over $200,000. Well she's well on her way to making another deep run, as we just saw her win a pot to get up to almost 150,000.

. Harwood assembled a big bet of 40,000, and slid it in. Aranha spent about 90 seconds in the tank before kicking his hand in, and Harwood took down the pot without a showdown.
