On a heads-up flop of 6♥J♣9♥, Brittany Rivas and Srinivasa Vadlamudi got it all in, with Rivas at risk. 

Vadlamudi flipped over Q♠J♦ for top pair, but Rivas had him beat with K♥K♣. 

The runout of 2♠9♣ ended up giving her two pair and she was shipped the pot for the double. 

Two hands later, she got it all in again against Jacob Lostoski, who had slightly less chips. 

Lostoski: A♠K♥
Rivas: 9♣9♦

Lostoski would need to improve in this flip to stay alive, but the runout of 10♥6♦2♦J♣7♥ meant Rivas' nines held to send him to the rail. 

Rivas - 160,000
