TRIVIA (1)
ADD TRIVIA-
On the final hand, everyone had a shot of winning except for Chynna Phillips. She was still technically in the game with $5,000, but needed a miracle to win and that miracle was gone as soon as the bets were revealed. Kelli Williams ended up winning, having taken the most money into the final hand and standing on 17. A dealer 21 made her the winner.
