Slaktarn Wins $25,000 Heads-Up Omaha Event on Full Tilt

Full Tilt held its $25,000 heads-up pot-limit Omaha world championship on Saturday, an event that attracted 64 of the best online and live poker players in the industry.

Online player slaktarn beat Patrik Antonius heads up to win the $560,000 top prize. Antonius had to beat Hac “trex313” Dang in the Elite Eight and then Di “urindanger” Dang in the Final Four in order to advance and take down $320,000 after he declined to negotiate a deal when heads-up play began.

Eight players made the money Saturday, with eight through fifth receiving $96,000, third and fourth $168,000, and the rest going to the top two. Steve Sung and David Benefield were among those to make it to the Elite Eight.

This is the second huge buy-in heads-up event held on Full Tilt. David Singer won the first $25,000 heads-up no-limit hold’em event held on the site in May.

Thanks to the heafty buy-in, Slaktarn won more money than if he would have won either the NBC Heads-up Poker Championship and the World Series of Poker heads-up event.

The full bracket is available at Full Tilt Poker's website.
