The Knockout format has been extremely popular on Full Tilt Poker, with numerous tournaments taking on the format, and getting good-sized fields in return. The most popular Knockout event on Full Tilt is the Sunday Brawl, a $240+$16 tournament with a $250k guarantee, held weekly on Sundays. However, for Event #23 of FTOPS VIII, Full Tilt upped the ante quite a bit. The tournament remained a $240+$16 Knockout tournament, but had double the guarantee with $500k, and was a 6-max tournament, which along with the Knockout format guaranteed exciting action.

Roland de Wolfe hosted the tournament, with 3,149 players showing up, increasing the prize pool to $629,800. Not only was there a ton of money for the players lucky and skilled enough to make it deep, but each Knockout was worth $40, as well, creating incentive to play aggressively.

Event #23 wasn’t the best one for Full Tilt Pros, as David Pham had the best finish of them all, busting out 235th for $346.39. Many of the best players online shared the same fate as the Full Tilt Pros, however. Allinstevie was the most notable, finishing in 51st, taking away $1,240.71 plus any Knockouts he had during the tournament. Another notable tournament pro, Wiscomurray finished in 61st for $976.19.

As for the final table, princetendee has had some of the best results on Full Tilt at the final table, with over $60k in cashes prior to Event #23. Unfortunately for him, that didn’t translate into a huge win, however, his 6th place finish for $19,523.80 was his best ever. The biggest money went to elheroe, who outlasted the field after nine hours of playing, taking it all down for $124,020.22.

That is all for Event #23, be sure to check back to FTR Blogs soon for the finale in our coverage of FTOPS VIII!
