Full Tilt Poker: MiniFTOPS
Full Tilt Poker featured two more MiniFTOPS events last night, the first of which was a $22 No Limit Hold’em Cashout tournament with a $60K guarantee. When all was said and done, lau21 came out on top, taking home $10.8K in the process. Losing the heads up battle was mister_stiming, who settled on $7.4K for second, while DwayneStacey took third for $5.4K. The rest of the final table was rounded out by 2007-08 ($4K), OTZE666 ($2.9K), G_Zachrisson ($2.1K), salvetat ($1.4K), BeastieUA ($974), and Annie Oak ($684).
The evening event was a $22 Limit Stud Hi tournament that garnered only 1966 entrants, which meant there was an overlay (bonus!). When the dust settled, Akromax emerged victorious, adding $7.6K to his Full Tilt Poker account in the process. Fisnihing in second place after losing the heads-up match was pokahgawd, who settled on $4.6K, while Running9s took third for $3.2K. The rest of the final table consisted of bridget_phx ($2.1K), YukDaDuke ($1.4K), and marciuccio2 ($1K).

Poker slang:
- BLACK - When referring to chips, black usually stands for $100 casino chips. "This guy sits down with a stack of blacks and raises the first bet." Not ALL casinos use black for $100 but that is the common usage.
- THIRD STREET - In Stud, the third card dealt to each player.
- CHASE - To continue in a hand, often at poor odds, in the hopes of catching a much better hand. "He called, chasing the flush.".
- TOURNAMENT - A highly structured game involving potentially dozens of tables where all participants pay an entry fee and obtain a fixed number of chips. Once a tournament has started, additional players may not enter. As the game progresses players bust out and are eliminated until only one winner remains.
- SEMI-BLUFF - To bluff with a come hand that figures to win if it hits.
- FREEZE-OUT - A table-stakes game that continues until a small number of players (possibly only one) has all the money. The major event in The World Series of Poker is a freeze-out game.
