Shull fights his way through the field knocking out M.Sudduth (3rd) for the bounty and ending up heads-up against an equally deep stacked S.Brawell (2nd). While Shull got off to a fast start, it still wasn’t fast enough to topple the Fast-Break maestro, M.Braswell (4th) who, for the fifth-time, won the fast-break bonus. Shull closes the gap between 4th & 3rd, separating himself from the peloton joining the three Gundam point leaders McClary (3rd), Braswell (2nd) and M.Sudduth (1st).
McGuire, an OG, knocked-out 5 players, collecting 6 bounties and a victory in the WSOG Pot-Limit Omaha Bounty Event. Amazingly, the top 3-spots were held by Micks (Mc’s). McIntosh almost went wire-to-wire with his fast-break bonus, however, when it came to heads-up, McGuire (who received the chip-n-chair bonus) pulled ahead and eventually applied the final blow McIntosh. McClary, a strong Gundam Championship contender finished 3rd, while the current Gundam point leader, SudduthM, finished in 4th place. The bubble-boy was Shull who remains in the front of the peloton (also 4th place) in the Gundam Championship race.
McIntosh grabs his first WSOG bracelet in after playing in just 3 WSOG Events. He plowed through the Razz field finally getting the best of Jean ‘the assassin’ Sudduth, who not only went into heads-up with a significant stack lead, but also sniped McClary for the Bounty Bonus. It went back and forth with P.McIntosh taking the final kill-shot on ‘the assassin’. Shull cashed in 3rd, while McClary took both the Bubble Bonus and the Chip-N-Chair bonus, keeping his substantial Gundam Point lead. M.Braswell got off to a strong start earning the Fast Break Bonus.
The World Series of Gundam Championship continues to be dominated by T.McClary & M.Sudduth. However, with McClary’s stronger finish in Razz he puts some distance (7 pts) ahead of M.Sudduth who is 10 pts ahead of the peloton. The peloton continues to remain compressed, with 3rd place and 11th place only separated by 8 pts (less than 2nd to 3rd). P.McIntosh jumps into the peloton fray with his victory.
2022 WSOG Championship Mug, Hat & Necklace awarded to Scott Braswell for out performing a field of 26 players over the course of 12 WSOG events.
After a brutal start to the tournament, where it looked like M.Braswell was going to overtake his father (S.Braswell) for the year long WSOG Championship victory, Scott fought back, climbing from 20th place to finish in 7th which was enough to secure 143 points (5 more points than 2nd place) and win the 2022 WSOG Championship. Decker’s strong 1st place finish in the Main Event (2nd consecutive Main Event victory) took him from 5th place to tied-for-second with M.Sudduth (who went from 4th to tied-for-second). Both M.Braswell and D.Shull dropped a few places, with M.Braswell falling from 2nd to 4th and D.Shull falling from 3rd to 5th.
Decker wins his 2nd Main Event victory in a record breaking field of 22 players! This year’s Main Event was huge, starting with 3 tables. AndreaW. played strong throughout the tournament finishing in 2nd place, while C.Dorsen brutalized players on his way to 3rd place. M.Sudduth wielded his short stack just previous to the bubble bursting to fight his way to 4th place. In a very impressive come-back, LeviC, got hit hard during the first few minutes of the tournament running into Sudduth’s straight flush (but making a very good fold.) But he fought back strong getting the Chip&Chair bonus by going from 18th place (in 3rd round) to finishing in 5th place.

The 16 player WSOG Event #08 (No-Limit Hold’em with bounty) started with Cody L. taking out the first 3 players and jumping to a quick lead. While Cody ended up in the money (4th), it was the strong finish (going from 15th to 1st place) of Jean S. that resulted in a bracelet being shipped to Texas. Jean ultimately took down Doug S., who had a strong 2nd place finish (and is now 2nd in overall Gundam points.) Scott B. continues to finish strong in tournaments with a 3rd place finish as he received the Fast-Break Bonus. Jean collected the Bounty Bonus by knocking out Scott.
Gundam Standings: The strong finish of Scott B., leaves him with a comfortable 20 points lead (but there is still a lot of poker left to be played.) Doug S. leap-frogged two positions and is now 2nd place in the standings. Mark S. took a hit by being the first one out, dropping to 4th, while Matt B. is keeps his 3rd place spot.
