Lily Newhouse’s time on The Big Game on Tour has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. The cancer survivor saw her stack plummet to $14,200 on just the third hand of play of the season after being on the wrong end of a trips versus full house cooler against PokerStars ambassador Sam Grafton.

On her second appearance, Newhouse was able to claw some chips back before another set-up against Grafton derailed some of her momentum in the third session. With coach Nadya Magnus’ help, Newhouse kept composed and went on a brief heater to rally back to her $50,000 starting stack. Last week’s episode saw Newhouse drop slightly further into the red, but she remained in a healthy position to walk away with a profit heading into the finale.
