Event 8: Maria Takes a Bite Out of Butch

 $400 + $50 Deep Stack NL          

Big stack Matthew Butch opened for 36k and action folded around to Maria Kalantzi (Long Island City, NY) who moved all-in for ~400k.  Matthew tanked for a minute, then made the call.

 Maria Kalantzi

Maria rolled over pocket Queens, which had Matthew's pocket Jacks crushed.  The board came 6 5 2 3 9 and Maria doubled up to over 800k.  Matthew was left with ~850k.
