More people should say "OMG who would be happy after playing Razz for 10 hours?" We haven't heard it enough yet.

The few interesting things I gathered from that interview: Maybe or maybe not selling the bracelet on ebay and that David Oppenheim pissed her off.

I think she's more used to playing with guys, and when you play in a women's only event, it requires a whole other aspect of poker, as most women in a WOE play weak/tight (which is the opposite I've found in a mixed event with mostly guys in the field).

After Vanessa got knocked out, she didn't have anyone to play back at her, and I think she got tired of everyone going fold, fold, fold.

Even Katja said though, she wasn't pleased with how she played that final table, in her interview afterwords.

She tried a LP steal with TT, got raised all-in by Boyer, who had the 2nd biggest stack, and called. Boyer flipped over KK. That got her M below 10, and she went into all-in mode, getting some of it back. But the blinds kept coming up, and eventually her AT ran into AQ. Busto in 5th place. Impressive show, except for that one big mistake.
