Send it all to SENDIT16 - FTOPS Day 2

Berry Johnston won just over a thousand dollars in Event 2 of FTOPS V

By Arthur Crowson

It was just another day of good old fashioned online poker at Event 2 of the Full Tilt Online Poker Series V. The game was Limit H.O.R.S.E. and Full Tilt Pro David Singer was the host but it was online player SENDIT16 that stole the show.

After a long day of great poker it all came down to an exciting heads-up match between AngelTheresa and SENDIT16. The chips (and insults) were being traded back and forth. During one exchange SENDIT16 lost a $620,000 pot and AngelTheresa proved to be no angel by taunting, "Naughty, Naughty."

Just a few hands after the big loss SENDIT16 made the chips back with trip aces. The pot contained $1.2 million in chips which was enough to put SENDIT16 in the driver's seat. AngelTheresa was eliminated shortly after that when both players moved in with a pairs of Jacks. SENDIT16 had the better kicker however and sent AngelTheresa packing.

The top 10 finishers of FTOPS V Event 2 are as follows:

Place	Player	Prize
1.	SENDIT16	$51,800
2.	AngelTheresa	$34,188
3.	Joshuah333	$20,720
4.	RiverKill3er	$12,017
5.	spence	$7,459
6.	tommyboy83	$5,594
7.	dandaman29	$4,040
8.	GASSS_U	$3,004
9.	Elendir	$2,279
10.	hollisterpmp	$2,279

Overall the tournament was a feisty affair and the table chatter was going strong all day long. The event attracted 1,036 players and with a buy-in of $200+16 it created a prize pool of $207,200. SENDIT16 proved a powerhouse at the final table and knocked out a number of players which helped secure a spot in heads-up play.

FTOPS V Event 1 Champion Kadabra made an appearance and even commented there should be a FTOPS V tournament of champions.

It's unknown where host Singer finished but 1986 Main Event Champion Berry Johnston made his presence felt by coming in 33rd good enough for $1,243.

Kadabra and SENDIT16 are now tied for first on the FTOPS V leaderboard with 200 points each.

Event 3: Pot-Limit Hold'em is set for Friday Aug. 10 with five-time WSOP bracelet Allen Cunningham as the host. The Main Event of FTOPS V will take place on Aug. 19.
