FTOPS X Event #6: $500+35 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-max

FTOPS X Event #6, $500+35 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-max, drew 642 participants, though it fell just a bit short of its $350,000 guaranteed prize pool. Among the players who ran deep but missed the final table were Tristan "Cre8ive" Wade in seventh ($7,700), Brian Hastings in eighth ($7,700), PeachyMer in 12th ($4,200), mossified84 in 18th ($2,555), and Full Tilt "red pros" Aaron Bartley in 24th ($2,065) and Berry Johnston in 26th ($1,680).

Chip counts to start the final table were as follows:

Brent "Broberts85" Roberts - 890,671
d3fault - 865-922
pu-sdaeh - 729,560
BubonicPlague - 549,799
thecranium - 494,832
xquadfourskinx - 321,216

The first to go was pu-sdaeh at 15,000/30,000 blinds. From the button, pu-sdaeh made it 82,500 to go and was raised by Brent "Broberts85" Roberts in the small blind to 277,500. Pu-sdaeh called and the flop came (6-Spades)(9-Hearts)(Q-Spades). Roberts bet enough to set his opponent all in with (K-Clubs)(K-Spades)(Q-Diamonds)(7-Clubs) and pu-sdaeh called with (J-Spades)(J-Hearts)(10-Hearts)(8-Hearts). The turn and river came (6-Clubs) and (5-Spades) as Roberts' kings held on to win, eliminating pu-sdaeh in sixth for $12,250. BubonicPlague was unable to inflict any more damage after a hand against thecranium. From the small blind, BubonicPlague raised to 78,000 and thecranium raised to 234,000 from the big blind. BubonicPlague called and when the flop rolled out (9-Spades)(10-Hearts)(6-Clubs), bet 468,000 and set thecranium all in. After briefly thinking it over thecranium called and showed (K-Hearts)(K-Spades)(Q-Diamonds)(3-Clubs), slightly leading against BubonicPlague's (Q-Clubs)(Q-Hearts)(J-Hearts)(10-Diamonds). The turn and river were blanks, coming out (2-Hearts) and (A-Diamonds). BubonicPlague was very short-stacked and was out a few hands later in fifth for $19,250.

Out next was d3fault after getting it all in preflop with (A-Spades)(K-Hearts)(J-Spades)(7-Hearts) against Brent Roberts' (A-Diamonds)(A-Clubs)(Q-Clubs)(3-Hearts). The board came (2-Hearts)(2-Spades)(8-Spades)(6-Spades)(2-Clubs) and d3fault took home $26,950 for fourth. Xquadfourskinx, holding (K-Hearts)(K-Spades)(10-Hearts)(9-Spades), was busted the next hand, again by Brent Roberts, who held (A-Hearts)(6-Diamonds)(5-Hearts)(3-Spades). The board came (A-Clubs)(4-Clubs)(J-Spades)(2-Diamonds)(4-Diamonds) as Roberts' wheel took it down and eliminated xquadfourskinx in third for $35,455.

The heads-up battle was quick as Brent Roberts claimed the win. After limping from the button and facing a raise to 120,000 by thecranium, Roberts called and the flop came (Q-Diamonds)(7-Clubs)(3-Diamonds). Thecranium led out for 120,000 and Roberts bumped it up to 480,000, which was met by an all-in raise to 1,134,295 by thecranium with (A-Clubs)(Q-Clubs)(9-Diamonds)(4-Hearts). Brent Roberts called and turned up (10-Spades)(10-Diamonds)(7-Diamonds)(4-Clubs) for the middle pair and flush draw. However, the (10-Hearts) hit the turn and sealed the deal. The river was the meaningless (2-Diamonds) as thecranium finished runner-up for $49,350. Brent "Broberts85" Roberts won Event #6 and $75,250.
