Notable finishers outside the final table included Alex "AJKHoosier1" Kamberis in 10th place ($4,788), Randers in 17th ($2,873) and PeachyMer in 23rd place ($2,107) The chip counts to start the final table were as follows:

Jonathan "driverseati" Tamayo - 319,463
jampiriki - 253,353
canofcorn22 - 141,084
Demonfrost - 105,521

DragonDrake - 92,339
olivsen - 59,956
Sploder - 42,928
Greg "DuckU" Hobson - 30,641

Eliminated first was Sploder at 1,400/2,800/350. From the button, Sploder moved all in for 36,278 with (A-Hearts)(5-Hearts) and was called by DragonDrake in the small blind with (4-Diamonds)(4-Clubs). When the board ran out (2-Diamonds)(2-Spades)(10-Hearts)(9-Hearts)(7-Clubs), Sploder was out in ninth for $7,660. Shortly into the 1,700/3,400/400 round of play, olivsen had bad timing with (A-Hearts)(K-Hearts), running into jman5j23's (A-Clubs)(A-Diamonds). The board came (3-Spades)(K-Spades)(J-Spades)(5-Clubs)(6-Spades) and olivsen was busted in eighth place for $9,575. Out next was Greg "DuckgU" Hobson at 2,000/40,000/500. He got it all in with (J-Hearts)(J-Diamonds) against Jonathan "driverseati" Tamayo's (A-Clubs)(Q-Clubs). The board came (A-Diamonds)(5-Spades)(6-Spades)(6-Clubs)(Q-Hearts) and Hobson was out in seventh for $12,447.50.

The 2,500/5,000/600 level's lone casualty was DragonDrake, after he shoved from the button for 53,767 with (6-Hearts)(6-Clubs) and found action from Demonfrost holding (Q-Spades)(8-Clubs). A queen came on the flop and it was enough to send DragonDrake home in sixth for $19,150. The next elimination occurred at 5,000/10,000/1,000. Canofcorn22 opened to 22,000 under the gun and jampiriki shoved from the button for 132,287 with (K-Spades)(J-Diamonds), but ran into canofcorn22's (A-Hearts)(J-Hearts). The board came (6-Diamonds)(10-Spades)(3-Diamonds)(5-Spades)(7-Spades) and it was all over for jampiriki, who finished fifth for $26,810.

Canofcorn22 was low on chips after losing a critical coin flip to jman5j23 and was eliminated the next hand. Jonathan Tamayo's (J-Hearts)(8-Diamonds) topped canofcorn22's (A-Spades)(5-Spades) when the board rolled out (6-Diamonds)(5-Clubs)(8-Hearts)(Q-Hearts)-3. Fourth place paid canofcorn22 $35,427.50. At 8,000/16,000/2,000, Jonathan "driverseati" Tomayo gave way in third place. He was all in with (J-Diamonds)(10-Diamonds) for 290,316 after reraising jman5j23, who eventually called with (6-Clubs)(6-Diamonds). Tomayo found no help as the board came (5-Diamonds)(9-Clubs)(5-Clubs)(Q-Hearts)(3-Diamonds), and was out in third for $45,960.

Heads-up play lasted for a while, but at 12,000/24,000/3,000 jman5j23 notched the victory. Demonfrost moved all in for 273,560 with (K-Clubs)(J-Spades) and jman5j23 called with (3-Spades)(3-Diamonds). The board came (3-Hearts)(8-Clubs)(5-Clubs)(K-Spades)(A-Hearts) and it was over. Demonfrost finished as the runner-up for $61,280, as Jman5j23 emerged victorious for the $95,750 payday.

Among the best finishes falling short of the final table were TiltHappens in 12th place ($5,600), Jonathan "driverseati" Tamayo in 14th ($4,800) and Adam "Roothlus" Levy in 17th ($4,000). The chip counts at the start of the final table were as follows:

At 1,000/2,000/200, backmanslivs busted. From the cutoff, backmanslivs shoved for 31,576 with (4-Hearts)(4-Spades) and was called by Scott "dorinvandy" Dorin in the small blind with (A-Clubs)(10-Spades). A ten came on the flop and it was enough to send backmanslivs home in ninth for $7,000. In the following level, 1,250/2,500/250, nateypgate was sent to the rail. Nateypgate raised to 6,800 from the cutoff and Dorin called on the button. The flop came (7-Spades)(9-Hearts)(4-Spades) and nateypgate led out for 9,200. Dorin shoved all in with the bigger stack holding (A-Spades)(Q-Spades) and nateypgate called all in with (J-Spades)(9-Spades), which was ahead. However the turn and river came (A-Hearts) and (Q-Diamonds) , and nateypgate was out in eighth place for $10,000.

It took quite a while for the next player to fall, but on the last hand of 2,000/4,000/400 both Justin "WPThero" Rollo and Scott "dorinvandy" Dorin were felted. Faraz "The-Toilet 0" Jaka opened to 12,000 and Scott Dorin moved all in for 138,366. On the button, Justin Rollo then reraised all in for 146,631 total. Jaka insta-called, tabling (A-Spades)(A-Diamonds), having Dorin's (J-Diamonds)(J-Clubs) and Rollo's (10-Diamonds)(10-Clubs) on the ropes. The board ran out (6-Hearts)(5-Diamonds)(9-Clubs)(8-Clubs)(6-Clubs) and Jaka won the huge hand. Dorin finished in seventh for $14,000 and Rollo in sixth for $18,000. At 3,000/6,000/600, 0120 was on the short stack and moved all in from the small blind for 61,549 with (10-Hearts)(8-Diamonds), and was called by Michnak in the big blind with (K-Clubs)(10-Clubs). The board came (J-Hearts)(J-Spades)(J-Diamonds)(K-Diamonds)(9-Diamonds) and 0120's tourney was over in fifth place for $23,000.

Greg "DuckU" Hobson's impressive recent run does not appear to be ending anytime soon. After a victory in the FTOPS X series and a final table one night earlier in the Fill Tilt $1,000, he finished fourth here. His final chips were in the middle when he held (A-Diamonds)(7-Diamonds) against Faraz Jaka's (8-Spades)(8-Clubs). The board came (5-Diamonds)(8-Hearts)(Q-Spades)(2-Hearts)(9-Diamonds) to end Hobson's run. Hobson earned $33,600 for his effort. ADZ124 worked his short stack all the way up to third place. The blinds and antes were 5,000/10,000/1,000 when he exited; in the small blind, chip-leader Faraz Jaka shoved and ADZ124 called all-in for 60,528 with (J-Clubs)(4-Clubs) and had Jaka's (4-Spades)(2-Spades) dominated. The board ran out (Q-Hearts)(2-Clubs)(9-Spades)(10-Diamonds)(A-Spades) as Jaka hit his deuce, sending ADZ124 to the rail in third for $44,000.

The chip counts at the start of heads-up play were these:

Faraz "The-Toilet 0" Jaka - 690,270
Michnak - 461,730

The match came to an end at 7,500/15,000/1,500. Jaka had built up a nearly 10-to-1 chip lead and moved all in from the button with (A-Spades)(9-Clubs). Michnak called with (A-Hearts)(2-Hearts) and when the board came (6-Clubs)(7-Diamonds)(3-Clubs)(4-Diamonds)(K-Hearts) it was all over. Michnak finished in second place for $59,000 as Faraz "The-Toilet 0" Jaka took down the Super Tuesday for a prize of $78,000.
