Big Stax 500 (Day 1B): Maggie Morris Is A #Boss

Level 5 (Blinds 200/400/50)
Total Day 1B Entries: 133

Maggie Morris (Stamford, CT)
So Maggie Morris (Stamford, CT) breaks into the tournament scene earlier this year, taking home first place money ($95,000) in a three way chop of the Big Stax V/Big Stax 300.  She would best a final table that included the likes of Joe McKeehen, Joel Gola, and Rocco Luciano, on her way to the biggest payday of her life.  The relative unknown player may have been looked at by others as a flash in the pan, but she continued to go deep in tournaments, including a $500 No Limit Hold'em event at Borgata (5th Place - $8,497).

Even after all of those results, Maggie would make sure that any of the doubters out there would have no value claims.  Morris final tabled Event #49 ($5,000 No Limit Hold'em) during this summer's WSOP, finishing in fourth place and earning over $212,000.  It's clear that Maggie is just a boss, but because of her work schedule, she doesn't get a chance to play nearly as much as she would like.  She just took her seat at Table 49 for the first time this series, and has already tweeted out to friends (that already bagged) that she hopes to see them on Sunday.
