LADIES 4TH PLACE - SHERWOOD


4th, Sherwood - $4,896

After dominating the final table early, Jenn Sherwood stumbles in one hand and finishes 4th in the Ladies Event.

With seven players remaining, Sherwood and Lisa Maloney lock horns with a board of [A Q 5] and Maloney leading out for 100k. Sherwood, reraises all-in and Maloney snap calls for her remaining 350k.

Sherwood sees her (AJ) is way behind to Maloney's (AQ) flopped two pairs.

"That was the turning point," says Sherwood, who collects $4,896 for 4th place. "I didn't have to lose 400 (thousand) that hand. She was pretty tight. If I had just min raised, I think I could've gotten away from a shove and only lost 200"

That hand knocks Sherwood down to 300k, while bolstering Maloney to 1 million in chips.

Sherwood is eventually eliminated by Abraham Korotski when she puts her last 215k all-in with (KQ suited) against his (8 7 off). The turn brings a 7 and Korotski sends Sherwood to the rail.

"I played well," says Sherwood, "just disappointed with one hand."
