10/23/12 - Annie Campos

We began with 23 players, a few new faces and one we hadn't seen for a while, Kurt Schendel, a regular from the Bridge days. By the break we were down to 16. William Yeung was the bubble for the final table and was taken out by trip eights. Before cards could be drawn for the final table, two more players were out and we had six players draw for seats. The final eight consisted of Dave Lee, Mary Dee, Sean Robinson, Michael Anderson, Michael Zhang, Kevin West, Kurt Schendel and Annie Campos. Early on at the final table, Michael Anderson went all in against Michael Zhang, and won the hand with queen high. Against Zhang again, Anderson's King Queen versus Zhang pair of deuces, and the deuces held, with Anderson going out. Zhang then goes all in with queen four against Kurt Schendel, who had jacks and the jacks held removing Zhang from the game. Kevin West with seven six took out Zhang who had a pair of sevens which turned into a set, but Kevin got a straight with his connected cards. With a ace four that turned into a pair of aces, Annie took out Kevin. And with only a king high she beat Kurt Schendel and won the first game.
