Big Stax 500 (Day 1A): Ruffman Snags One

Level 12 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/300)
Total Entries: 243

Ruthie Ruffman (Colts Neck, NJ) just picked up a pot worth over 100,000, and has surpassed the 200,000 mark with those chips.  Ruffman was faced with a 40,000 river bet on a nine high board (with Matt Glantz behind to act), and thought about it for a little before calling.  Glantz said he was going to snap call if she folded, but he found himself deep in thought as well.  He decided not to overcall, and when Ruthie flipped over K 9 (top pair) for the win (opponent missed straight draw), found out it was the wrong decision.  Glantz said he folded the winning hand, but he still sits with an average chip stack.
