Zwei Tage in Folge hatte Tu Dao das $1.000 Ladies Event der WSOP beherrscht und jeweils die Chiplead inne, doch am Ende reichte es für die Kanadierin nicht zum Titel.
Am Schlusstag lief bei ihr im Finale der letzten sechs Titelanwärterinnen wenig bis gar nichts zusammen, ehe sie ihre letzten 18 BB mit AJ in der Mitte unterbrachte und gegen Sandrine Phans Buben auf Platz 4 ausschied.
Es sollte der Tag von Jiyoung Kim werden. Die Südkoreanerin war als Zweite in den Finaltag gegangen und übernahm in dessen Verlauf immer mehr das Kommando.
Am Ende kam das nötige Glück dazu, dass ihre Hände hielten. Mit A2 gegen K9 nahm sie erst Sandrine Phan vom Tisch, und auch Nancy Matsons K8 schafften es in der letzten Hand des Turniers nicht, Kims A9 zu überholen.
Die Bracelet-Gewinnerin aus Südkorea hatte schon vor diesem großen Triumph einige gute Resultate vorzuweisen, aber natürlich sind das WSOP-Bracelet und die Siegprämie von gut $161.000 ihr bisher größter Erfolg!
