Second Place LA! Moves up to First! - 9/06/14
In the early years of the LLWSOP, you pretty much had no shot at landing in second place at the tournament, mostly because LA! seemed to always take that spot. She has landed in second a few times since then, but September was the month for first place. Not only did she play well, but she also hit some important draws on her way to first place.
After the money bubble, LA! got it all-in with KJ, only to be facing KK from Jim Moorman. The board was kind, giving LA! the win with a diamond flush. Monty was the next obstacle on the road to victory and LA! tabled several winning hands, while taking most of the chips on the table. Monty was all but out, facing QQ when a five card strait hit the board and chopped the pot. Monty wasn't able to take advantage of the free-roll though and soon landed in second place.
