Here��s a summary of Thursday��s tournaments:
Event #10: $216 Limit Hold'em Rush Multi-Entry
Event #10 fell short of its $75,000 guaranteed prize pool, meaning the 363 players in attendance had a $2,400 overlay. The event still brought out some of the biggest names in the game and many former FTOPS champs, including Obst, who reached his seventh career FTOPS final table.
Obst was seeking his third FTOPS jersey, but ultimately fell short after losing heads-up to "bullingpros". Also making the final table was "mrcall912," who increased his lead in the FTOPS XXI leader board with a fourth-place finish in this event. On Tuesday, "mrcall912" won Event #6, the $216 H.O.R.S.E. tournament for $18,699.
