The tenth Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) continued on Tuesday with a tripleheader of event action. Event #12, a $200+16 "HA" (half PL Hold'em, half PL Omaha) tourney, attracted 936 entrants to create a total prize pool of $187,200. Notable finishes included fan4mizzou in ninth place ($2,902), Shane "UgottaBkiddin" Pacheco in 12th ($2,209), truesyalose in 24th ($1,030), bowser125 in 34th ($734.80) and PeachyMer in 43rd ($524.16).

losebigpots - 813,539

Transeporter - 806,492

Jeff "Biggest Donkey" Banghart - 534,435

satfat - 465,329

JonStephenson - 343,384

Exiting the table first was satfat at 12,000/24,000 at PL Hold'em. On the button, losebigpots raised to 72,000 and satfat reraised to 222,898 from the small blind. Losebigpots then reraised enough to put satfat all in. After a few moments satfat called with A?Q?, but trailed losebigpots' A?K?. The board ran out 5?K?J?Q?6?, sending satfat home in sixth for $6,485.40. Transeporter was eliminated next at 15,000/30,000 PL Omaha. The board read 7?9?6?A? after the turn and JonStephenson bet the pot of 226,500. Transeporter shoved all in for 427,047, getting a fold from hmiester. JonStephenson called and turned up A?6?K?J? for two pair but was against Transeporter's 10?8?Q?7? for the nut straight. The river, however, was the A?, making a full boat for JonStephenson. Transeporter finished fifth for $10,108.80. Jeff "Biggest Donkey" Banghart was eliminated at the same level after moving in with a short stack of 149,551 and getting called by two opponents. The pot was checked down and Banghart did not win, finishing in fourth for $14,227.20.

Finishing in third place was JonStephenson after losing a big pot to losebigpots at the 25,000/50,000 PLO level. From the small blind, JonStephenson raised to 150,000 and losebigpots called from the big blind. When the flop came 2?4?7? JonStephenson led out for 300,000, but was raised to 1,200,000 by losebigpots. An all-in shove from JonStephenson meant losebigpots was all in when he called. The hands were 9?9?A?K? for JonStephenson and A?4?5?K? for losebigpots. The 3? hit the turn and made a wheel for losebigpots, severely denting JonStephenson's stack, who was later eliminated in third for $18,720.

These were the chip counts at the start of heads-up play:

losebigpots - 3,187,241

hmiester - 1,492,759

The battle lasted about 35 hands, but losebigpots maintained his lead and won the tournament. It ended at the 30,000/60,000 round of pot-limit hold'em. Losebigpots, holding A?8?, bet enough to set hmiester all in, and hmiester called with J?7?. The board ran out 4?3?2?5?4? and hmiester finished as the runner-up for $26,208, while losebigpots collected $39,967.20 and emerged as the winner of Event #12.

AmazingChase: (K?9?) K?3?J?

Busting during the 25,000/50,000 hold'em level was hmiester, fresh off a runner-up finish in Event #12. Short-stacked and in the big blind, hmiester's final chips were in the middle with 9?6?, but he could not beat HelloCity's K?5? as the board came 9?K?3?K?J?. Hmiester's impressive day ended with $12,600 for fifth place here. Vortex2099 hit the rail in fourth later in the round.

At 30,000/60,000 in Omaha hi-lo, HelloCity said goodbye. On the button, HelloCity raised to 60,000 and POCKET FIVE called. The 8?3?6? flop brought a check-call from POCKET FIVE and led to the 7? turn. This time POCKET FIVE check-raised and HelloCity called. The A? river card saw POCKET FIVE lead for the first time and HelloCity call, only to see POCKET FIVE show 10?9?5?4? for the nut straight and a good low. HelloCity fell on the next hand in third place for $31,800.
