Full Tilt Online Poker Series Event 7 was the $100 buy-in no limit holdem rebuy poker tournament. Hosted by Peter “Nordberg” Feldman, Full Tilt Poker had a guaranteed prize pool of $400,000. Over all, though they had 2,254 entrants, 3,193 re-buys and 1,188 add-ons to produce a prize pool exceeding $660,000. $121,719.08 of that would go to first place.
351 poker players would make into the money and Bull1967 ended up the bubble player in this one finishing 352nd. Making it to the money though were Full Tilt pros Sigi Stockinger at 304th, Scott Fischman, 243rd, Rino Mathis, 238th and the highest finisher would be Eddy Scharf at 152nd.
The final hand before the final table was a heartbreaker for kyco. With the blinds at 25K/50K and short stacked with only 20,456 in chips, kyco seemed to find the hand and went all-in under the gun with pocket queens. The pot was raised to 170,000 by jacksup on the button and then re-raised by Merovingian in the big blind. Jacksup folded and unfortunately for kyco, Merovingian flipped over pocket aces. No help on the board and kyco was sent to the rail on 10th.
The final table was set with:
Broberts85 – 2,218,204
Merovingian – 1,967,990
Jacksup – 1,842,952
Ibleedbenjamins – 1,228,343
Big deejay – 930,364
IocoPocoMaIoco – 743,523
IAmClutch – 678,669
Ims shutterbug – 619,166
IcePrincesca – 275,289
The first casualty of the final table was Ims shutterbug getting all-in pre-flop with Ad Ks and being called by big deejay with 7s 7c. A flopped ace looked good for Ims shutterbug but the river proved disastrous when a 7d hit and sent Ims shutterbug home in 9th.
Ironically, it was big deejay getting all-in preflop a few hands later with 8h 8d from the small blind and being called by IocoPocoMaIoco from the big blind with As Ks. This time a turned ace doomed big deejay and he was sent to the rail in 8th.
After an early double up, IcePrincesca was again under 300,000 in chips when she went all –in from the small blind over a button raise from IocoPocoMaIoco.
IAmClutch called from the big blind and IocoPocoMaIoco also called. The flop came jack high and a turn bet by IAmClutch forced a fold by IocoPocoMaIoco, IcePrincesca flipped up Kh Qd but was drawing dead to a flopped set of jacks by IAmClutch and was sent home in 7th.
Ibleedbenjamins was next to leave when it seemed like a blind steal went bad as Ibleedbenjamins went all-in for 750,000 with Qh 3c from the small blind and was called by Merovingian in the big blind with Ah 6c. A flopped and rivered ace sent Ibleedbenjamins home in 6th.
It was Broberts85’s turn to make a stand as he went all-in with pocket nines and was ran into pocket jacks of jacksup and was sent home in 5th, IocoPocoMaIoco was next all-in with Ah 8h versus IAmClutch with As Jh. The board did not improve either hand and IocoPocoMaIoco is gone in 4th. This hand put IAmCLutch over 4 million in chips and the chipleader with 3 players left.
That didn’t last long as in just a few more hands jacksup raised the button and IAmClutch went all in from the small blind with 9s 9c. Jacksup called with Td Tc and the board again did not improve either hand and IAmClutch was done, finishing in 3rd.
Jacksup entered the heads up play with 7,881,714 in chips to Merovingian’s 2,654,786. It took just two hands for Merovingian to cut the gap to 2,000,000 and it stayed that close for almost 15 more minutes. The big blow came when jacksup raised the small blind and Merovingian called. The flop came 4h 2s 4d and Merovingian check raised jacksup on the flop. The turn brought the 8s and Merovingian bet 1,320,000, just under the pot. And jacksup re-raised all-in. Jacksup showed pocket tens and Merovingian showed 5d 4c for the flopped trips. The river 7s was no help and jacksup was crippled, down to 746,928 chips.
Jacksup was all-in the next hand a couple hands later with 6 h 7 c versus Jc 5s and a flopped 5 and turned jack sent the pot, title and $121,719.08 to Merovingian.
