MSOP Event #35

Took Home 9th Place, which sucks because of it's Very Flat Payout structure that gets huge at the Final Table of 8.

It was 7 Stud this time, a game I don't have a lot of experience in, but I knew the basics. Got a big stack early when I had quads by 4th street and KO'd 2 shorties. I sucked out while All-In THREE times (!), and finally on the last hand I made a stand with A-Q-3 against villain's 7 upcard... He had rolled 7s (obv). Even Aces Up couldn't overcome that, and I was the Final Table Bubble Boy.

My second deep run in the MSOP, and my best finish so far, I'm still searching for that Final Table. Maybe Next Time.
