Lily “Big Salami” Kornik was already well known to Playground’s cash game regulars before she won the Playground 1000 during the MILLIONS North America and started making a name for herself among tournament players. She is in the field this afternoon and showing everyone the kind of plays it takes to win a multi-day event.

Most recently, while the blinds were at 400/800, she was in the big blind when the action was opened with a raise from the button from Pierre Olivier Guay to 1,800. Bang Tran, in the small blind, made the call before Lily raised the price of poker to 6,000. Her Raise chased Pierre Olivier out of the pot, but Bang would not go away so easily. Instead, he put in a raise of his own to 16,000 in an attempt to turn the tables. But Lily stuck to her line and went all in over the top.

After asking for the count and mulling it over, Bang folded to give Lily nearly 20,000 in uncontested chips.

Play continues in level 10 with 44 players remaining.
