The Turbo Takedown PokerStars completed its comeback and now mainstay at the end of every month. The buy in is simple: free. All this tournament cost is 5,000 Frequent Player's Points (FPPs), which might be a tad hefty for the causal player that isn't on one of the VIP tiers of Silver, Gold, Platinum, supernovalinks, or Supernova Elite. Thanks to the plethora of satellites even the causal player who didn't want that extra PokerStars shirt for mom, can get into the action for just a couple of FPPs earned at the cash games and SnGs.

Schmidl89 I'm sure was glad he joined into the fray, as his bankroll increased by a six-figure factor while taking out Pokerguden for the $100,000 first prize. Yep, $100,000 for simply earning enough FPPs while playing. Pokerguden, while taking $60,000 for second, probably had a few words to shout at his computer about how the last hand played out according to the PokerStarsBlog.com:

The final hand was a monster. Schmidl89 came in for a standard raise, Pokerguden re-raised with pocket kings, and Schmidl89 called. The flop came Th 9d 2h, Pokerguden pushed, and Schmidl89 called with Qh Td. The board put out two more hearts, giving Schmidl89 the flush and the victory.
