For the first time ever, the MSPT made its way to St. Charles, MO, and players have been duking it out over the past week inside the Ameristar Casino for their Season 17 Missouri Poker State Championship!
Kicking things off the ten-card event series was Event #7: $250 Monster Stack NLH, which saw 112 hunters take to the trenches, and generated a $22,400 prize pool that was paid out to the top 12 players.
Among those to cash but fall before the final table were Ryan Kinder (10th Place - $4970), Glenn Wells (11th Place - $470), and Saad Ghanem (12th Place - $470).
In the end, it was St. Louis native, Mitchell Semple, who tamed the monster stack, earning himself the lion's share of the prize pool!
