Three women - Kitty Kuo, Kyna England and Daniela Rodriguez - remain in contention for the WPT Venetian title, with the tournament down to a final table of six.
Only two other women have won World Poker Tour titles, Van Nguyen in 2008 and Ema Zajmovic in 2017, and all three players are in with a shot of adding their name to the Mike Sexton WPT Champions Cup and winning $910,370 prize money.
The chip leader is Mike Liang, who narrowly leads from Chad Eveslage before a significant gap down to Tim McDermott who is third in chips.
