Seat 7: Katie Swift (171,500,000) - 34, UK, partypoker qualifier
Katie Swift qualified twice through online satellites on partypoker and earned her seat in the ��550 Phase 1 steps. The first attempt didn't go that well and Swift busted in level six, but the second attempt saw her stack go all the way up to 171,500,000 and the 34-year-old from Palm Bay/Kent in the UK is the last outright online qualifier and second woman on the final table of the 2017 partypokerLIVE MILLIONS Dusk Till Dawn ��5,300 Main Event.
Swift has a nine-year-old son, who she describes as her biggest non-poker achievement. "I met my husband by playing poker and when we had a kid, we named him Jack. The Jack of hearts, who will always be in my heart." Swift is a business owner and runs a cafe, and she already has some live results in the poker resume as well. In August 2015, Swift reached the final table of the ��120 Goliath Main Event and finished second out of a 2,764 entry-strong field for a payday of ��46,300.
Swift will be one of the crowd favorites when play resumes and has ��72,395 guaranteed.
