Wenn Seven Card Stud auf dem Programm steht, dann weiß man schon dass es ein kleines Feld sein wird. Wenn dann auch noch High-Low gespielt wird, dann ist es noch ein bisschen kleiner. So waren es nur 210 Spieler, die zum $5.000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Low antraten und für eine Preispool von $987.000 sorgten.
Bei kleinen Feldern ist die Stardichte um einiges höher und so war es auch beim Stud. Angefangen bei Daniel Negreanu über Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, Allen Kessler, Kevin MacPhee, Scott Nguyen, David Sklansky bis hin zu Maria Ho und Brandon Cantu waren alle dabei. Natürlich ließ sich auch Team PokerStars Pro George Danzer die Teilnahme an diesem speziellen Event nicht nehmen, allerdings musste er als Erster gehen. Er musste einen großen Pot gegen seinen Teamkollegen Eugene Katchalov aufgeben und verabschiedete sich wenige Hände später noch vor der ersten Pause des Tages.
Im Laufe der acht Levels folgten ihm aber viele Pros an die Rails, darunter auch Chris Bjorin, Chino Rheem, David Singer, Dario Alioto, Alexander Kostritsyn, Vanessa Selbst, John D’Agostino, Bill Chen, David „ODB“ Baker, Allen Kessler oder auch Kevin MacPhee.
Trotz der Limit Variante wurde das Feld in den acht Levels nahezu halbiert. Die Führung holte sich Matt Woodward, der es aus seinen 15.000 Starting Chips 59.700 machte. An Tag 2 geht es um die 24 bezahlten Plätze und es wird ein langer Weg sein, um sich $9.583 zu sichern. Tobias Hausen konnte sich auf dem ausgezeichneten 7. Rang niederlassen, auch Isi Bojang und Dani Studer sind in Tag 2 mit dabei.
