Jiménez entered the tournament with 71 entries, building her way through the field. At Level 14, with blinds at 2,000/5,000, she held a stack of 468,000 chips. Her aggressive play was on full display when she bet 10,000 on an A♣K♥7♣ flop, forcing both opponents to fold.
Earlier in the hand, Luke Bird had limped in from Under The Gun (UTG). Jiménez, in the Big Blind, checked before making her decisive move. Later, Carlos Alonso called from the Small Blind, but her strong bet secured the pot. Her performance in Sevilla marks another notable result, though details of her earlier career remain limited.
