MayhoodXXX Makes Good at Full Tilt Poker on Sunday April 20, 2008
2,006 players made it to Full Tilt Poker's quarterly $1 million guarantee on Sunday April 20, 2008. The $500 + 35 buy-in event barely met the guarantee. As the final table action got underway, MayhoodXXX had the chip lead with 2.8 million plus. theusual06 struck first, knocking da_professional out in ninth position with aces in the hole.
theusual06 then eliminated the short stack Todd “classic” Williamson in seventh position. This time theusual06 held pocket queens. classic, an online specialist who goes by the moniker Thug Liiiife at PokerStars, earned more than $23,500 for his efforts. theusual06 would finally hit the rail himself in fourth position.
By this time, due to the chip advantage gained by taking out ship hamilton and bukowski back to back, MayhoodXXX was in a pretty good position. He rode that crest all the way to heads-up play against beaurgard. beaurgard actually had a 2:1 lead going on, probably due to his elimination of donttakeshots in third position.
Fifteen minutes later, MayhoodXXX turned the tables and held the title as well as the $184,552 that went to the first place finisher.
These are the results:
1) MayhoodXXX - $184,552 2) beaurgard - $113,339 3) donttakeshots - $74,222 4) theusual06 - $59,177 5) Bukowski - $45,135 6) ship hamilton - $32,297 7) classic - $23,571 8) o LIMIT 45 o - $18,556 9) da_professional - $14,042
