Update: We are currently at break and I am 7th out of 12 remaining.

Currently 9th out of 10. Fighting for that last final table spot.

I still have enough chips left to wait for a good hand to move with.

I bring so much bad luck to people!!!

Finished in 9th place. Just 1 spot short of my first final table.

On the bright side, that was my first cash in a Stud Hi/Lo tourney and I did it despite making several mistakes. Plus I have been destroying the 1/2 Hold Em tables lately. $40 in each of the last two one hour sessions.
