Full Tilt Poker?s FTOPS V Series Shatters Expectations

Dublin, Ireland (PRWEB) August 31, 2007 -- FTOPS V guaranteed $7 million in prize money over 14 tournaments, but the series? popularity overwhelmed expectations, drawing huge fields for each event and swelling the total combined prize pool to more than $10.5 million. Every pro-hosted FTOPS V event bested its original guarantee, with four events growing to over $1 million in total prize money.

Event 12, Full Tilt Poker?s first-ever two-day tournament, was hosted by Phil Ivey and guaranteed a prize pool of $600,000.

First place in this gigantic event was won by Grndhg25, who took home $396,900 for his victory.

The FTOPS V Main Event, hosted by Paul Wasicka, saw 4,578 entrants and paid out more than $2.2 million in total prizes. CrazyZachary won the event, taking home the $395,905 first prize.
