James Akenhead takes $ 500,000 of the eighth Full Tilt Poker Million
James Akenhead is arguably the player who played the final of the World Series of Poker of this year and the worst taste in my mouth was, since it was first out, was in ninth place . However, this past weekend, it seems, could offset a little of their fate in 2009, taking the first major title this year, which however gave as part of the November Nine a $ 1,263,602 . This is the VIII Full Tilt Poker Million
, which has won nothing more nor less than
hundred thousand dollars
, beating players like
Juha Helppi or Luke Schwartz ‘FullFlush ‘. James Akenhead, new champion of the 8th Full Tilt Poker Million It’s controversial ‘ FullFlush’ player came on as leader at the final table, but would come in fourth place when after a great thud against Akenhead , was eliminated by Mikkelsen < >, which suddenly was eliminated even though at first seemed like Helppi would read, but he knew intelligently traced, ending with a slight advantage in the final duel. However, the blinds were very high already in the heads-up, and Helppi
could not maintain its advantage over
Akenhead
, which was ultimately dismissed with tens, beating a pair of six of its rival. Helppi, secondly, it took just half its rival,
250.000 dollars .
So, the prize list of the final table of this
8 º Full Tilt Poker Million
was:
James Akenhead – $ 500,000
Juha Helppi – $ 250,000 Dag Martin Mikkelsen – 200,000 $ Luke Schwartz’s FullFlush ‘- $ 150,000 Craig Wakeham – $ 100,000 Peter Vasiliou – 75,000 $ Caby Taylor ‘Green Plastic’ – $ 50,000
