Griffin Arnold is the Flight C chip leader after eliminating Ladies Event runner up Mary Donahoe. As recapped by the table, Arnold held 9x8x on a TxTx7x flop. Donahoe shoved all in and Arnold called. He spiked a straight on the river and ended Donahoe’s run at a second final table appearance. After snatching the last of Donahoe’s stack, Arnold claims 102,500 chips and leads the way.

When recalling the hand for media staff, one tablemate jokingly referred to Arnold as “Money Man”. Turns out, the nickname may be fitting. Two years ago Arnold finished 9th in the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship for nearly $175,000.
