Melanie Banfield has scored a massive double KO claiming the scalps of Las Vegas legend Archie Karas and former Day 1 chip leader Jerrod Ankenman to put herself and the other 62 players in the field into the money!
Karas came in with a raise from under the gun and the action folded around to Ankenman who reraised from the hijack. Banfield four-bet it from the button and both blinds folded before Karas five-bet himself all-in. Both Ankenman and Banfield called, so it was heads-up into a sidepot on a flop that read
