Rodriguez was ahead for the knockout but Muniz paired his ace on the Ah7s3c flop. The 2d turn changed nothing but the excitement came on the Jc river for the two-out set of jacks. Muniz was sent out in 14th place while also picking up a min-cash for his double bag.

Ivan Yatusk opened to 125,000 from early position and Marsha Wolak shipped for 575,000 from late position. Yatsuk thought for a few minutes and called.

Yatsuk: AhTc
Wolak: Ad3h

“Good hand,” the former WSOP Ladies Event champ told Yatsuk. “I hoped I could get you to fold that.”

Wolak was dominated by the bigger ace and could not find a save as the dealer spread the Ac8h7h4c7d board.
