Isaac Baron Wins FTOPS VIII #1
Isaac Baron has beaten over 4,150 other runners to win the opening event at the Full Tilt Online Poker Series.
The $200 + $16 event was a Six-Max No Limit Hold’em event carried a $750,000 guaranteed prize pool – easily surpassed by the 4,158 runners who generated a total prize pool of $831,000, with Baron taking $158,800 for the first place finish. The twenty year-old is one of the leading online players in the world, perhaps better known by his PokerStars alias of ‘westmenloAA’. As well as winning FTOPS Event #1, he has also won a Sunday Million on PokerStars for $254,000, a $750k Guaranteed on Full Tilt for over $130,000, a $215 rebuy on Stars and a Sunday Mulligan on Full Tilt, the last two netting $57,000 and $47,700 respectively.
Baron is also making quite an impression on the live scene, with his recent fourth place finish at the EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo netting him $932,000. In doing so, Baron joins a select bunch of players who have won a million both online and live.
The highest finishing Full Tilt pro in the first event at FTOPS VIII was Scott Fischman, who finished in 18th.
