With around 45,000 already in the pot and the board showing J♥4♥A♥10♥6♣, it was down to Jessica Vierling and Ruth Flores.
Vierling, first to act, went all in with 24,300. Flores, visibly unhappy about the all-in, took a long time to consider whether to call for half of her stack. In the end, she decided to open-fold her 8♦8♥, giving Vierling a decent stack.
Ebony Kenney was on a short stack and got her last 6,600 chips in the middle from the hijack. Action was caught when Amy Teykl already called the all in early position. Action was on Neiasha Russell in middle position and she eventually decided to fold.
Ebony Kenney: 5♠5♥
Amy Teykl: K♥Q♠
The flop J♠9♠3♥ gave Teykl a gutshot to go with her overcards, and the turn 6♠ gave her a better flush draw. But the river was the 7♣, Kenney dodged everything and doubled-up.
Under the gun raised to 1,200 and Yua Nagumo moved all in from a middle position for 3,200. The big blind and under the gun both called and the players went three ways to the flop.
The board came Q♦K♥6♣ and under the gun moved all in. The big blind folded, and the two remaining players flipped their hands.
Yua Nagumo: 2♦2♠
Under the Gun: A♠K♣
Under the gun was ahead on the flop with top pair, and Nagumo was looking to improve.
The turn went Nagumo's way as the dealer placed the 2♣, giving her a set.
The J♠ river completed the board and sealed the triple up for Nagumo.
Under the gun limped for 600 and Nancy Nguyen raised from middle position to 1,800. Under the gun called, and the players went heads-up to the flop.
Both players checked on the K♦K♠8♥ flop and saw a 4♥ turn.
Under the gun bet 2,000 and Nguyen made a quick call.
The A♦ river prompted another 2,000 bet from under the gun and Nguyen responded by moving her entire stack into the middle. Her opponent took some time before making the fold, and Nguyen took down the pot.

Chien-Chih Weng minraised from early position and the players in the hijack and cutoff called. The player on the button decided to three-bet to 3,000. Action came back on Weng and she four-bet to 7,000. Hijack and cutoff folded, the player on the button called.
The flop came 7♦8♠3♠. Weng bet 4,200 and, after some thinking, the button called.
The turn was the 8♣. Weng went all-in for 8,700. Her opponent then went into the tank. After a couple of minutes of thinking, she finally called.
Chien-Chih Weng: A♦A♣
Button: 5♣5♥
Weng's aces were way ahead and she was able to dodge the two-outer to double-up.
Jen Shahade kicked off the action with a raise to 1,100, which Mary Platz called from the big blind.
On the A♦10♣2♣ flop, Platz check-called Shahade's 900 bet.
Both players checked the K♣ turn.
After Platz checked on the A♣ river, Shahade bet 2,800. Platz called after some consideration and revealed A♠7♠ for trip aces. Shahade's cards went into the muck.
