Luther shoved all-in from the small blind with her remaining 2,285,000. Andrew Hulme called from the middle position. The Indian pro turned over an A ♣ K ❤ , while Hulme showed a A ♣ Q ❤ . The board flipped over to 5 ♦ 5 ♠ 2 ❤ , keeping Luther in the lead. The turn of Q ♦ changed the game. Luther was now only one card away from bidding adieu to the table. The river of 9 ❤ drowned Luther’s journey in the WSOP 2023 Main Event. With Luther exiting the Main Event, Estelle Cohuet becomes the last woman standing at the event.

Luther’s journey into the WSOP 2023 Main Event was nothing short of a dream. She was among the top stacks at the end of Day 3 as well as Day 4. On Day 5, she lost some chips just before the closing to the day, and yet managed to enter Day 6 with the 58th best stack among 149 survivors. Finally, after putting up a great fight her journey into the WSOP 2023 Main Event came to an end.
