Makar Makes a Pair

Well, Becky Makar has done it again. She was sitting with 79,300 chips when she got it in with {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} against Drazen Ilich. She was in awfully bad shape as Ilich tabled his dominating {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}. No worries for the lady.

She reacted with a shrill, "Yessss!" as the {J-Clubs} appeared right in the window. The board ended up showing {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}, and Ilich was less than impressed by the beat.

"I'm just tired of folding all the time," Makar admitted.

"That's a great excuse to get all your chips in bad," Ilich couldn't help himself. He's still got about 130,000, but that pot was for a top-three stack had it gone his way.
