We had a great turnout for Flight A of the 2022 Pinktober Poker Open Championship and we expected even better on a Saturday afternoon. Flight A drew 151 entries and the $1,700 buy-in tournament needs only 116 more to top its $400,000 guarantee.

Then we go bigger.

Players start with 40K stacks and all Day 1 levels last 40 minutes, going up to 60 minutes at the start of Day 2. Late registration and unlimited re-entries are available until the start of Level 10 at 6:30 pm following the 60-minute dinner break. Flight B will play through 14 levels and anyone with chips will bag for a Day 2 return tomorrow at noon.

It will be a fun day in the Poker Room.

Frank Weigel opened to 10,000 from middle position and Barbara Cardin called on the button. Terri-Anne Crawford raised to 35,000 from the small blind and Weigel clicked all in for 50,000 total. Cardin folded and Crawford called.

Crawford:

“Don’t worry,” Weigel told her. “You’re going to win.”

“I’m a little worried,” Crawford responded.

Weigel was looking good but Crawford paired her ace on the flop. Weigel had some diamond outs with the last two kings but blanked the turn and river to go out late in the day.

Terri-Anne Crawford – 194,000 (49 bb)
