Both Bitakis Doing Well

Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Jennifer Bitakis moved all in for 255,000 from the hijack which saw a player call on the button while everyone else folded.
Jennifer Bitakis: A?8?
Button: 8?8?
The flop of 6?5?2? saw no help come to the ace-eight, but on the turn A?, Bitakis pulled ahead and held on the 7? river. Her husband John "Greek" Bitakis was watching from one table over, also having a successful start to the day, came over to embrace her after her win.
At another table, Nader Isahac was eliminated.
