FTOPS Day 11: Kevin "-1SickDisease-" Eyster and Grayson "swish3113" Ramage Win Gold

FTOPS XXI

The Full Tilt continued Wednesday with two more events from the 35-event schedule — Event #25: $322 Pot-Limit Omaha Heads-up, and Event #26: $322 No Limit Hold'em Six-Max w/ Rebuys.

Top online pros continued to have success in this FTOPS series as Kevin "-1SickDisease-" Eyster scooped his first FTOPS jersey in Event #25. Eyster defeated Joseph “MTstackin88″ Spanne for the title in the heads-up event. In Event #26, Grayson "swish3113" Ramage bested a tough final table that included Brandon "norajean" Meyers and Jochum "groengras" Weenink to win the gold jersey and $65,160.

There were no changes atop the Full Tilt as "Callyoudownn" maintained the lead with 558 points. Notables Bryn "OneUponAStar" Kenney (2nd - 543 points), Chance "Chances Cards" Kornuth (6th - 413 points) and Meyers (7th - 401 points) still have their eyes on the custom Full Tilt Poker avatar and the $10,000 FTOPS XXII package that will go to the leaderboard winner.
