hAAydon Wins FTOPS Event 22
Full Tilt Poker player hAAydon took down one of the biggest online poker tournaments tonight after winning the 2-day FTOPs Event #22. HAAydon outlasted the field of 942 in the $2500 + 120 buy-in NL Holdem event hosted by Full Tilt Pro, Patrik Antonius.
There was a little annoyance though at the final table. When it reached just 3 players, hAAydon, triathlon4 and knickadam55 decided that they wanted to work out a deal. Unfortunately, Full Tilt support was nowhere to be found!!! What the hell is wrong with these guys that they can’t dedicated 1 support person to an event as large as this with so much money at stake. This kind of thing would NEVER happen at PokerStars. In the chat some of the players expressed their frustration with comments like, “triathlon4: you are kiddin me” and “hAAydon: lol support”. Knickadam55 finally decided to email support and the 3 went on away in hopes that a support person would come to the table. After waiting over 5 minutes, no support was to be found.
Strangely enough, the players were destined for their final standings as the tournament ended in order based on the chip counts they had when they tried to iron out a deal. This probably cost the 2nd and 3rd finishers thousands of dollars, but it worked out quite nicely in hAAydon’s favour as he took home over $541k for the win.
The final table also featured one of poker’s funniest players, Tony Guoga. Tony even did a few endorsements for his PokerNews.com site in the chat, but eventually was busted in 6th place.
Here are the final 10 for this event:
1 - hAAydon - $541, 650
