Casino news source: CardPlayer Magazine - http://www.cardplayer.com Online Poker: rc Hoop Wins FTOPS Event No. 6 Full Tilt Online Poker Series Short-Handed No-Limit Event Goes off Without a Hitch Full Tilt Online Poker Series IV Event No. 6: $400,000-Guaranteed Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em The sixth event in the Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) IV, a short-handed no-limit hold'em tournament, easily beat out its $400,000-guarantee last night when 2,555 entrants ponied up the $200 buy-in to generate a prize pool of $511,000. That prize pool meant players were vying for a $100,647 first-place prize. Among the in-the-money finishers in the tournament were many Internet poker notables, including CalBandGreat (who took down event No. 4 in this tournament series, earning $208,840) in 11th place, for $4,829, Derek "DSnyder766" Snyder (who frequently final-tables major events) in 12th, for $4,829, and Greg "DuckU" Hobson (who took down the major Sunday tournament on Full Tilt two weekends in a row in April) in 34th place, for $1,610. Illya "myrabbifoo" Trincher, a notable pro in both live and Internet poker, made the final table in the tournament. He eventually busted out in sixth place, earning $15,841. Rc hoop was the winner of the event, and he took home the $100,647 top prize and an exclusive gold FTOPS jersey avatar for his win. The final results were: 1) rc hoop - $100,647 2) phi1430 - $63,773 3) FoldTOcash - $44,048 4) jklaen - $33,470 5) phil_lee 81 - $23,762 6) Illya "myrabbifoo" Trincher - $15,841
