A3 Sweeps Stud Tourney

The A3 Crew dominating 7-Card Stud this week at Hank's, with Big Jim taking first and Phil McGroin capturing second. The pair battled it out on the same table from start to finish, and also had to deal with Lee and Kelvin at table two. The competition got a little easier when Kelvin made his straight and got ass-hatted by Lee's quads.

Big Jim pounded the table with position and completion bets and refused to call-off chips. Meanwhile Phil managed to not be the bring-in 42% of the time, as he did a week earlier in Razz.





Hank's 8th place finish was enough to maintain a slip one-point lead over Baklava, who finished 6th and caused the most damage to Hank's house (which is really funny - because it was Hank's house, ya feel me?). Big Jim's win vaults him to the number three spot. It would be great to say that "this is what can happen with one win," but actually Jim has cashed in all three tournaments in which he has played.
