Several of the Full Tilt Online Poker XII events have passed since the tournament series kicked off last week and thousands of players have logged on to compete in the large guaranteed events. Event #4 has ended with almost 1,200 people competing.
Event #4 was a $200 plus $16 no limit hold’em tournament that allowed 1 re-buy and 1 add-on per competitor and featured a $500,000 guaranteed prize. The pot rose however when 872 players purchased re-buys and 784 players bought the add-ons. The prize pool would now sit at $580,400.
The first player to go in this FullTiltPoker tournament would be miAmihans who earned $8,706 for ninth place while Mammola would go down in eighth earning $12,188.40. Online player achen finished in seventh earning just over $16,000 while ITrashYou earned $26,118 for sixth place.
The next few to go would be Alain456, Dudeofilife and tuff_fish which left Leopard18 and tuna_fish_tank to begin heads up play. When heads up play began Leopard18 had $3.8 million in chips to tuna_fish_tank’s $2.3 million. It would only take ten minutes before Leopard18 would claim the FTOPS XII event #4 win.
On the final hand tuna_fish_tank would call Leopard18’s raise with his A-4. The flop fell 9-6-A and the turn card was a ten. Leopard18 bets yet again and was raised all in by tuna_fish_tank which leopard18 called. Leopard18 turned over A-9 and the two pair won him the title and $127,688 for the win.
