$1,650 Winter Poker Open Championship
Level 16: 2,000/4,000/500 Ante
Perhaps it was a good thing Alex Ivan stayed away for his extended break. He made his return and promptly lost chips when he doubled up Thuy “Cindy” Beltran.
She was down to 27,500 and put them in the middle to see a call from Ivan in the small blind. Beltran was ahead with against and breathed a sigh of relief when she hit the flop. The turn left Ivan drawing dead but it was a small hit to his stack.
