Since I was away over the weekend, this was only the second FTOPS event I played. It was a $1000 NLHE tournament, and although I lasted about three hours, I really didn’t have any interesting hands come up. I ended up busting to this psychotic mouth-breather:
Full Tilt Poker, NL Hold’em Tournament, 140/280 Blinds, 25 Ante, 8 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

3 folds, MP2 raises to 1,400, CO folds, Hero raises to 7,275 and is All-In, 2 folds, MP2 calls 5,875
Flop: (15,170) Q 8 4 (2 Players – 1 is All-In)
Turn: (15,170) 8 (2 Players – 1 is All-In)
River: (15,170) 6 (2 Players – 1 is All-In)
Results: 15,170 Pot
MP2 showed J 8 (three of a kind, Eights) and WON 15,170 (+7,870 NET)
Hero showed 7 7 (two pair, Eights and Sevens) and LOST (-7,300 NET)
As you can see, he was playing like a complete spewtard. He also started the hand with nearly 20,000 chips. You can probably imagine how he got them. Tonight I’ll likely play the $200 PLO8.
