Congratulations to John_McClane17 who lived up to the reputation of his movie namesake by outlasting 3,797 other players to claim the FTOPS IV Main Event title and more than $336,000 in prize money.
John_McClane17 secured the victory when – after about 20 minutes of heads-up play - he  called his opponent’s all-in with A-7. KingDan23 turned up A-J, but John_McClane17 paired his 7 on the flop and booked the win when KingDan23 failed to improve. KingDan23 earned nearly $203,000 for his impressive second-place finish.
Whoever said sequels aren’t as good as the originals should talk to John_McClane17. One week after walking away with more than $336,000 and the FTOPS IV Main Event title, McClane found himself back on top as the winner of our first-ever FTOPS Tournament of Champions.
McClane bested a field of 35 other FTOPS champions to capture the title and a free seat at the 2007 WSOP Main Event.
We wish McClane the best of luck on completing his poker trilogy.
