The ladies are now on their first 20-minute break of the day.
We caught up with the action preflop, where Jennifer Tilly and another player had 400 in the middle. The player in the small blind went all in for her last 1,275. Tilly tanked for a while but then re-raised to 3,000 and the third player folded.
Tilly: 
Opponent: 
"I was hoping you had ace-king," Tilly said.
The board ran out 
and Tilly was forced to double her opponent up.
Tilly is still healthy, however, with 3,700 in chips.

Another rapturous ovation went up through the Pavillion Room and we rushed over in time to catch Christopher Digiromalo making his exit. Sharri Crawford was only too happy to recall the details to us.
All the money had ended up in the middle before the flop, with Digiromalo flipping for his tournament life with 
against Crawford's 
. The flop came down 
(two diamonds), but Crawford soared further ahead when another appeared on the turn to give her the set.
The river was a non-diamond 
and with that, we say adios, muchacho.

Ricky Fohrenbach was among the several men who entered today's Ladies Event. We walked by his table just as he was all-in on the turn. He was called and revealed a queen-high flush, but it was no match against his opponent's ace-high flush and Fohrenbach was eliminated (much to the delight of of the women in the Pavilion). As per tradition, cheers spread throughout the room upon realizing that another man had been sent to the rail.

Susie Isaacs is arguably the most decorated player in this event. She recorded two bracelet wins in the 1990's, and bubbled the final table of the main event in 1998. She is off to a good start, as we just saw her take down a nice pot on the river. We came to the table as Karina Jett and Isaacs were in a hand with another player on the button. The board read 
, and action was checked around to the button, who bet out 650. Jett folded, but Isaacs stuck around to see the river, the 
. Isaacs decided to bet out this time, putting out a 500 chip. Her opponent called, and Isaacs showed for the nut straight. Her opponent mucked, and Isaacs jumped up to 4,300.
We were call over by Gretchen "The Dragon Lady" Brummer, who boldly claimed that she had the biggest stack in the room. Sure enough, we looked down, and she was sitting on 8,000, which is certainly up their in our counts. We will be sure to keep an eye on her as the day goes on.

Our very own PokerNews Hostess Lynn Gilmartin recently stopped by the desk to inform us of the unfortunate news that she has been eliminated from the tournament.
"I didn't even make it past the first level," Gilmartin bemoaned. According to her, she held against the 
of her opponent. The flop came down 
and the rest, as they say, was history.
