Online Poker Roundup: 'ZBTHorton', 'IfIHadItAll' Notch Major Wins 0001

Brian "ZBTHorton" and "IfIHadItAll" were the winners in the biggest early-week online events, taking down the Full Tilt $1,000 Monday and the PokerStars Super Tuesday, respectively. The Full Tilt event also featured deep runs by two other players who've posted other stellar finishes of late in Keven "Stamdogg" Stammen and Faraz "The-Toilet 0" Jaka. Here's how the action unfolded:

Full Tilt $1,000 Monday

The $1,000 Monday on Full Tilt drew a crowd of 350 with the winner scheduled to receive $87,500. Among the best finishers failing to reach the final table were Matthias "goodvibe" Neu in 12th place ($4,375), Anthony "holdplz" Spinella in 15th ($3,500), Marco "CrazyMarco" Johnson in 17th ($2,625), Tim "Tmay420" West in 19th ($1,925) and Ryan Daut in 22nd ($1,925). The chip counts to start the final table were as follows:

Brainwav - 254,602

reeping - 214,071

hucklebuck2006 - 136,818

kenneoin - 115,717

TYGOP - 108,245

Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick - 73,266

Brian "ZBTHorton" Horton - 71,084

Keven "Stamdogg" Stammen - 51,712

Faraz "The-Toilet 0" Jaka - 24,485

At 2,000/4,000/500, Faraz "The-Toilet 0" Jaka was the first to be sent to the rail. He shoved from middle position for 30,185 with 2?2? and found action from Brian "ZBTHorton" Horton in the big blind, who showed 3?3?. No deuce would find the table and Jaka was out in ninth for $7,000. The next to fall was hucklebuck2006 at 2,500/5,000/600. Brian Horton shoved from the button and hucklebuck2006 called all in with A?Q?, racing against Horton's 3?3?. The board came 6?3?7?K?6? and hucklebuck2006 exited in eighth for $8,750. Reeping busted short after that. Under the gun, reeping raised to 20,000 and Brainwav, from the big blind, reraised to 60,000. Reeping then moved all in for 186,359; Brainwav called with 10?10? and was well behind reeping's A?A?. However, the board ran out 2?6?10?6?7? as reeping was left to read 'em and weep, out in seventh for $11,375.

When play reached the 3,000/6,000/750 level, TYGOP was sent to the virtual rail. From the button, kenneoin shoved for 79,817 with 9?9?, and TYGOP called all in from the big blind with A?Q?. The board rolled out 6?3?8?9?10? and TYGOP was eliminated in sixth for $17,500. The next hand was the last for Keven "Stamdogg" Stammen. Stamdogg moved all in from under the gun with K?Q? and was called by Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick, who held 6?6?. The board came A?3?10?3?7? and Stammen was done. His hot streak of reaching final tables continued with this one paying him $24,500 for fifth. Late in the level, kenneoin was eliminated in fourth place. On the button, kenneoin shoved for 86,757 with A?7? but ran into Brainwav's 9?9? in the big blind. A third nine on the flop would win the hand for Brainwav and send kenneoin off with $32,375. At 4,000/8,000/1,000, Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick was eliminated after running his A?6? into Brainwav's A?Q?. The board came K?2?7?8?2? and Chidwick finished third for $42,000.

Heads-up play began with these chip counts:

Brainwav - 825,800

Brian "ZBTHorton" Horton - 224,200

Horton was able to double up when his sevens held against sixes, and he took the chip lead. He won the match outright at the 5,000/10,000/1,000 level. He raised to 25,000, and Brainwav reraised to 94,000. Horton then shoved with the big stack and Brainwav called with A?Q?, having Brian Horton's K?Q? in dire straits. The board, though, came 5?4?3?6?K?, with Horton managing to spike a river king to win the tournament. Brainwav finished runner-up for $56,00, while Brian "ZBTHorton" Horton collected $87,500 for the win.

2. Brainwav - $56,000

3. Stephen "stevie444" Chidwick - $42,000

4. kenneoin - $32,375

He opened to 24,999 on the button and Pot Odds 3 shoved with the big stack from the big blind. Kenney called with A?10?, but needed help to crack Pot Odds 3's K?K?. The 2?6?Q? flop provided some help, but it never came as Bryn Kenney departed with $33,600. Sms9231 succumbed in third after a long three-handed battle. At 6,000/12,000/1,200, sms9231 shoved for 157,994 from the button with A?6? and got action from Pot Odds 3 in the small blind with 7?7?. The board ran out 2?2?J?9?K? and sms9231 exited with $44,000.
