MiniFTOPS started last night with the Jeremiah Smith hosted event, and it was defiantly more than a success. 16,711 hungry poker players registered for this $20+2 NLHE event pushing the prize pool over $334,000. Full Tilt Poker pro 'Christian Kruel' fell just short of shipping of the event as he wound up in fourth place. The tournament and the first place money of $49,611.62 belonged to 'dbfla'. Dbfla made his way through this massive field to claim a MiniFTOPS victory, which only means 16,710 hearts were broken in the process. Want your shot at a MiniFTOPS championship?
