FTOPS XV Event #17 Results
Feb 23, 2010
Event #17 of the Full Tilt Online Poker Series XV offered up more than $1 million dollars in prize money and was hosted by Peter Feldman. The event was a No Limit Hold’em Rebuy and Add-on 6max game and had a buy-in of $300 plus $22, if you didn’t earn a seat via satellite. The event saw players purchasing re-buys 1,872 times and 766 players made it to buy add-ons.
The tournament had over 1,000 players competing and this increased the $1million guaranteed prize pool to $1,101,000. The host, Feldman, was joined by eighteen other Full Tilt sponsored pros which included Huck Seed. Although many Full Tilt pros were competing none of the pros made it to final table play.
When it came down to the last three competitors, Agame18, StackedYa and WMACHINE, the three decided to make a deal. The remaining players decided to chop the remaining $490,000 which was left in the prize pool to $164,000, $174,533.50 and $153,043 respectively. In the end the biggest winner would be StackedYa who would earn the first place finish.
