EMSBas Wins Pot Limit Hold'em Event at FTOPS VIII
Marco Traniello, Jennifer Harman's hunky hubby, sat in on the action at Full Tilt Poker on Friday afternoon. He presided over the Pot Limit Hold'em Event. The $200 + 16 buy-in tourney drew $1,076 entrants, generating a $215,200 prize pool.
Traniello didn't make bank in the event, but two Full Tilt Pros did. Eddy Scharf hit 80th place, earning $387.36 and Scott Fischman held the 45th slot. Fischman, who cashed in the very first event , was also the top FTP finisher in Event #4.
In the end, EMSBas took the title, the $48,420 and the special FTOPS avatar. He defeated StellarCards in heads-up play.
Here are the final results:
1) EMSBas - $48,420 2) StellarCards - $30,666 3) Kenny Rap - $22703.60 4) MissOldy - $17,754 5) Ralphie4 - $13,450 6) 1OutAllin - $9,684 7) PiMaster - $6,456 8) Bonified - $4,842 9) jumissa - $3443.20
