Haixia Zhang Busts Maurice Hawkins
Haixia Zhang sat down for Team Roberts with 15 big blinds. After folding a few hands, and a raise-fold, she doubled through Maurice Hawkins with pocket aces.
On the next hand, Hawkins went all in for 12,500 and Zhang shoved over the top for 35,000. Zhang had the best of it, holding to the of Hawkins. An ace came on the flop, but Zhang's jack kicker played to send Hawkins to the rail and bring Zhang and Team Roberts back to starting stack.
Team Roberts is Lauren Roberts, Lisa Hamilton, and Haixia Zhang. The team is pretty excited to be the only all-female team in the field. Zhang and Hamilton have both won the WSOP Ladies Event in previous years (Zhang 2014 and Hamilton 2009). Roberts has played several high roller events and has three WSOP cashes to her name.
