Event 9: Patterson Hoping for Payout

$260 + $40 Ladies NL 

The ladies are getting back to business with just two more to go to reach the money.  Among those hoping to cash is Toni Patterson (Queens, NY).  Toni played the ladies event here last year, but busted out before the dinner break.  This is only the second tournament she has ever played and she's within striking distance of her first tournament cash.

 Toni Patterson

She's already made it further than she did last year by surviving past dinner.  Her 20k stack is well below the 55k average and with blinds at 1,200/2,400 (300 antes) she needs to find some chips quickly.
