Level 15
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
We missed the elimination of Lauren Bunch in 47th place, but we learned some details after the fact regarding a huge hand against Sam Washburn.

and Washburn three-bet to 27,000 with the 
.
Bunch four-bet to 63,000, Washburn five-bet to 128,000, and Bunch moved all in. Washburn called to put her at risk.

flop, but a brutal beat was in store as a 
on the turn and 
on the river gave Washburn a runner-runner straight to chip up to 500K.
