FTOPS XXII

The 22nd installment of the Full Tilt Online Poker Series continued Tuesday with three more tournaments from the 38-event schedule: Event #6 $216 PL Omaha Hi/Lo 6-Max ; Event #7 $322 Razz; and Event #8 $216 NL Hold'em Rush Turbo.

Each event eclipsed its guaranteed prize pool as more than $335,000 was awarded across the three tournaments. The biggest winner of the day was "Vampyboy," who defeated a tough final table in Event #8 to scoop a $41,400 top prize. "PimpDaddyDolla" (Event #6) and "motion713" (Event #8) also won FTOPS jerseys on Tuesday.

With eight events already in the books, Germany's "keinebeine" has a comfortable lead in the FTOPS XXII Leader Board. The German has 346 points, most of which came from winning Event #4 on Monday for $131,298. His closest competitor in the standings is Event #1 champ Tom "hitthehole" Middleton with 261 points. Also in the top 10 are Thayer "THAY3R" Rasmussen (7th - 207 points) and Brandon "norajean" Meyers (8th - 205 points). The leaderboard winner will receive a custom Full Tilt Poker avatar and an FTOPS XXIII event package worth $11,000.

Here's a look at the results from Tuesday's FTOPS events:

In the end, it was Germany's "Vampyboy" who claimed the title after defeating Maimone heads up for $41,400.

Others finishing in the money were Pat "obiedman" O'Brien (22nd - $702), Nicky "cod meharly" Evans (24th - $702) and Jon "therookieqq9" Plens (26th - $702).
