On Friday, Katrina Sheary played Flight 3 of this event and made it through to the end of the day with 38,500 in chips. Heavily pregnant, she went home and put her weary feet up. Yesterday, she went into labour and gave birth to a beautiful baby boy!

Obviously unable to play today, her husband Peter (who was yet to play the event) stepped in to take her place today, and is still in the hunt with just over 100k in chips. With the last pay jump the Sheary's are now guaranteed a minimum of $6,495 to start their new lives together - with a shot at the $275,300 up top!
