FTOPS Event #1

[SNutizzle]

One of our members, Brian Hall (spankpiggy), is currently sitting 6th in tonight's event. There were 5779 entrants and there are currently 1209 left.

So hop on and rail if you're interested. It's been fun to watch, but I can't keep my eyes open much longer........yes I am the wuss who goes to bed before 10 in Vegas......such are the perils of early morning corporate and casino training.



Good luck Brian!

I went out in 577, cashed for $335 or so. Played pretty well, got a little reckless when I was big stack (3rd with 1800 left or so), then made a questionable play against a guy who hadn't shown he could lay down a hand.

GL to Brian!

Looks like Brian finished 195th for $670.

Sorry guys, I went to bed early last night...

Sorry Derek, I did NOT mean to leave you out and I would have railed for you too. I guess when I read your earlier thread I was under the impression that you tried to satellite and decided not to play it. Sorry, and nice showing!!!

Check out this hand from kind of early on in the tourney. After the flop I was just glad I had backdoor spades and a gutshot.
