��ms.dolores�� raised 6,400 in middle position, but faced a three-bet of 17,200 from WSOP bracelet winner Safiya "Player2021"Umerova, who was next to act.
The rest of the players got out of the way, and ��ms.dolores�� called.
The flop brought out J?9?4?, which ��ms.dolores�� checked. Umerova, though, fired 16,000 into the pot to force a fold and win the pot.
Of note, Tim ��uNORTH0dox�� Reilly is at the same table and is currently fifth overall in chips (380,940).
