Melanie Weisner Whacked
Nivel 10
: 400/800, 100 ante
After a player raised to 2,000 from under-the-gun, Melanie Weisner made the call and then watched as the small blind moved all-in for 12,200. The original raiser folded but Weisner decided to put the small blind at risk and she came along.
Showdown:
Weisner: 
Opponent: 
Weisner had woken up with a big ace, but her opponent held a better kicker and had Weisner in bad shape. The final board rolled out 
and Weisner's Broadway straight was second-best to her opponent's spade flush. She dropped to 38,000 with the loss but still holds a healthy stack as Day 1 winds down.
